MMO-Specific Gaming Mouses

SteelSeries Unveils the Aerox 5 Wireless and the Aerox 9 Wireless

SteelSeries, a Danish manufacturer of gaming accessories, has expanded its Aerox Wireless mouse lineup, which consists of several top-notch IP54 waterproof and lightweight devices, by launching the Aerox 5 Wireless and the Aerox 9 Wireless.

The Aerox 9 Wireless is a unique mouse that has been purpose-built for MMO and MOBA games, and, therefore, comes with an additional 12 buttons on the left side to allow users to engage in the myriad range of commands used in these types of games. In addition, the Aerox 9 weighs only 89 grams, making it one of the lightest mouses currently on the market.

Meanwhile, the Aerox 5 Wireless builds on the brand's debut Aerox model, introducing two thumb buttons, a DPI clutch (a.k.a. a sniper button), and a tilting switch.
