Today, Razer announced the launch of the Android version of Razer Comms. The app facilitates an all-in-one communication solution for gamers, allowing for calls and messages to be made from in-game to Android phones and vice versa, provided the PC user has installed the PC client, of course.

Staying connected in today’s world has become increasingly important and gamers are no exception to that. Razer Comms solves that by being the world’s first VoIP solution to allow gamers to make VoIP calls or instant message with their friends on the road from in-game and vice versa. – Min-Liang Tan, Razer co-founder, CEO and creative director.
