CHICAGO – April 7, 2026 – Kicking off the brand’s 25^th anniversary in style, SteelSeries, the global leader in premium gaming and esports peripherals, today unveiled the Aerox 3 Wireless Gen 2 series of gaming mice.
 
Building on the legacy of the original Aerox ultralight gaming mice, which debuted in 2020, the new Aerox 3 Wireless Gen 2 takes the franchise to the next level. It delivers near‑instant responsiveness with a 4K (4000 Hz) polling rate and 1.2ms click response time, powered by a high‑performance TrueMove 26K optical sensor with true 1‑to‑1 tracking. All of this is wrapped in an ultra‑lightweight, ultra‑durable, water‑resistant design and additional optimization through advanced performance tuning in the SteelSeries GG software suite.
 
The award-winning Aerox Series mice have been the go-to step-up mouse for players entering the competitive PC gaming scene, and the SteelSeries Aerox 3 Wireless Gen 2 continues that legacy, engineered for speed, precision, and durability. Durability is vital, with mechanical switches rated for an 80‑million‑click lifetime combined with AquaBarrier™ technology that safeguards against dust, sweat, and spills in an ultra‑lightweight 68g design. Customizable RGB lighting, long‑lasting battery life of up to 200 hours, and deep configuration through SteelSeries GG round out a mouse built for players who want a versatile, do-it-all performance powerhouse.
 
 
Aerox 3 Wireless Gen 2 – Key Features at a Glance:
 

• Not just fast, 4K fast – A 4K polling rate (4000Hz) delivers near-instantaneous responsiveness and precise control over your wireless connection, so the mouse cursor is perfectly synced to a gamer’s hand with ultra-fast clicks. The cursor on screen refreshes up to 4000 times per second to take full advantage of high-resolution monitors and ensure the gamer’s target reticle registers hand movement on screen 4x faster than standard 1000Hz mice (0.25ms vs 1ms).
• Quantum 4K Wireless – Minimize lag with advanced Quantum 4K wireless technology offering 2.4GHz gaming wireless with full support for 4K polling. Switchable dual wireless adds the flexibility to connect to other devices with Bluetooth 5.0. The rechargeable battery provides up to 200 hours of usage over Bluetooth or 120 hours on 2.4GHz (depending on polling rate, lighting, and power settings).
• TrueMove 26K Sensor – The high-performance 26,000 DPI TrueMove optical sensor tracks every movement with exceptional precision and consistency, delivering tighter aim and smoother control. With 400 IPS tracking speed and 40G acceleration, gamers get faster flicks with fewer skips, so when speed matters, the player is in control. Adjustable lift-off distance also lets gamers reposition their mouse without disrupting their aim, ensuring complete control in every moment.
• Ultra-Light. Watertight. – The Aerox 3 Gen 2 punches way above its weight. At just 68g, it’s ultralightweight, built for durability without added fatigue. When quick movements matter, the Aerox 3’s ultra-lightweight design enables faster, more accurate reactions. AquaBarrier™ protects against dust, dirt, and water – with a durable design that is IP54-rated, unlike other honeycomb shells.
• Long-lasting Battery – Up to 200 hours of battery life over Bluetooth and 120 hours over 2.4GHz, plus Fast Charge via USBC.
• Ultra Durable Design – With super-low latency, crisp clicks, and an 80-million-click lifetime, these mechanical switches are quick and consistent game after game. Six programmable buttons let gamers customize their play style. Onboard memory supports up to 5 saved profiles to customize sensitivity levels (X & Y DPI) with liftoff distance, polling rate, Scroll Jump Protection, Bluetooth Smoothing, Wireless Stability Enhancement, power saving, and illumination brightness, and save them directly to the mouse for instant access on any system.
• Advanced Tuning Software – Think of GG as your own personal pit crew for the likes of an F1 car. Every player aims differently – so Aerox 3 Wireless Gen 2 is built to be tuned, not just used.
  • Dial in DPI/CPI and Sensitivity – Configure precise X/Y DPI levels up to 26,000 CPI with fine‑grained steps to match any playstyle or monitor resolution.
  • Optimize Polling and Responsiveness – Adjust polling rate, debounce, and smoothing settings to balance ultimate responsiveness with battery life.
  • Fine‑Tune Mouse Behavior – Leverage Mouse Acceleration, Rotation Control, adjustable liftoff distance, and Scroll Jump Protection to eliminate unwanted input and keep crosshair movement predictable.
  • Save Up to 5 Onboard Profiles – Store preferred CPI steps, polling rates, and button mappings directly on the mouse for instant access on any system – no software required once profiles are set.

To celebrate the launch of the Aerox 3 Wireless Gen 2, the QcK Heavy series of mousepads gets a fresh seasonal color palette that complements both the Aerox 3 Wireless Gen 2 and Arctis Nova 7 Gen 2 color collections. The QcK Heavy mousepads are available in black and the new White and Magenta colorways, so gamers can sync their setup and express their personal style.

For decades, the world’s top esports pros have trusted SteelSeries QcK as their mousepad of choice. QcK Heavy delivers an unshakeable foundation thanks to its thicker, denser rubber base and premium micro‑woven cloth surface. It’s engineered for optimal tracking and precision and has been extensively tested and approved by leading sensor manufacturer PixArt Imaging.
 
Engineered to deliver elite performance for the most popular games on the planet, including Fortnite, Grand Theft Auto, Valorant, and more. Whether it’s tactical shooters, battle royales, MOBAs, or fast‑moving action titles, Aerox 3 Wireless Gen 2 is built to keep up with the meta – and the player.
 
Designed for the most popular competitive titles in the world, the Aerox 3 Wireless Gen 2 helps players stay sharp from the first round to the final circle. The ultra‑light 68 g form factor supports claw and fingertip grips, making rapid flicks and micro‑adjustments feel effortless in high‑pressure firefights. The combination of Quantum 4K Wireless, the TrueMove 26K sensor, and long‑lasting battery life means players can grind ranked ladders, practice routines, and marathon weekend sessions with a mouse that feels as precise in hour one‑hundred as it did in hour one.

A Complete Overhaul of Player Progression Puts Creativity and Control Directly in Players’ Hands

Walnut Creek, California — May 5, 2026 | Maximum Entertainment today released a major update to online mode Maximum Pro League (MPL), making the update the most ambitious evolution yet for Maximum Football. Available alongside Season Pass 6, this major update to online multiplayer fundamentally transforms how players build, customize, and dominate on the field, shifting the focus from chance-based systems to full player-driven progression.

For more details on today’s Maximum Pro League update, watch Maximum Football’s latest community update video:

From its inception, Maximum Football has centered on giving players the tools to build their own football universe. With this update, that vision reaches a new level.

From Chance to Control: A New Era of Team Building

In previous iterations, building a competitive roster often relied on luck. The MPL update eliminates that dependency, introducing a system where players actively shape their athletes’ identities and performance.

Instead of relying on pre-defined archetypes, every player card now serves as a customizable foundation, allowing users to develop athletes that fit their exact playstyle, whether starting from a Rookie or a Generational talent.

Higher rarity cards unlock:

• Increased stat floors
• Expanded badge slots
• Greater customization potential 

To support this new system, all players will begin with a fresh roster. However, existing players who financially invested in MPL 1.0 will receive packs of new cards to accelerate their transition.

Introducing Badges

Badges represent the core of MPL’s new customization system, enabling players to define how their athletes perform on the field. Found in packs and attachable to player cards, Badges provide targeted stat boosts and unlock unique playstyles. This system allows for the creation of highly specialized builds, from ultra-fast running backs to dominant defensive anchors.

Note on Last Gen Hardware:

While last-gen hardware players will still have access to Exhibition, Gridiron, Team Customization, Dynasty, Franchise and the Store, support for the other modes on Xbox One X and PlayStation 4 will be sunset in order to improve the on-field performance for the majority of players. Accordingly, online matchmaking for Exhibition matches will now be limited to players on the same console to avoid technical conflicts with newer versions of the game.

Season Pass 6 is Now Available

With the overhaul to MPL also comes Season Pass 6. The Out of Bounds pass takes players to where they’ve never gone before.

The update reinforces the game’s commitment to community-driven evolution while empowering players to fully control their progression.

Face a supernatural threat in a fast-paced side-scrolling shooter steeped in Mexican folklore and history

[Mexico] – May 5, 2026 – ¡Viva México! Brain-dead Rabbit Games and indie.io proudly announce that Dark Adelita is now available on Steam! Drawing on the rich culture of Mexico, the side-scrolling shooter combines high-stakes gunfights, precise platforming, and a dive into the history of the Mexican states. As the fires of the revolution fade after years of bitter fighting, a new threat rises from the ashes. As it spreads across the land, only one woman stands in its way… 

Players take control of Angela, the titular adelita, as she faces threats straight from Mexican legends. One shot is all it takes to eliminate her, making speed and precision in maneuvering between incoming bullets vital to staying alive. Angela is not defenseless: A trusty bolt-action rifle is her first line of defense, with other weapons like a shotgun, a machine gun, or a high-powered revolver available to help deal with the supernatural threats – while crucifixes help protect against stray shots.

The threats Angela faces start with Mexicans possessed by the dark force, armed to the teeth with rifles, shotguns, and other weapons, that force Angela to stay on the move. Cover is of limited help: The air is full of aggressive eagles that will swoop down when she least expects it. Each level ends in a boss fight against a foe straight from Hispanic folklore, such as the legendary La Llorona, a vengeful ghost mourning the loss of her children, drowned by her own hands.

The folklore of Mexico is more than just decoration or simple background lore. Dark Adelita was built from the beginning as a way to showcase the unique aspects of Mexico and its culture. Levels aren’t arbitrary maps, but unique settings inspired by each of the Mexican states, as are the creatures and characters rendered in a smooth pixel art style.

The very title and heroine are rooted in Mexican history: Adelitas were women auxiliaries, supporting and fighting alongside men, immortalized in a corrido about their struggles during the decade-long Revolution that defined modern-day Mexico.

Ready to see supernatural Mexico and fight for your very soul? Dark Adelita is now available on Steam for $5.99 USD, with a 20% launch discount, and is available through the indie.io store.

ABOUT BRAIN DEAD RABBITS

Formed by a trio of friends from across Mexico, Brain-dead Rabbit Games is a remote-first studio focused on creating games that are not only a blast to play, but also showcase the unique culture of their homeland. Dark Adelita is their second game, perfecting the shooter formula of their debut title, Damikira.
