The Razer Cthulhu gaming chair has been shown off by the brand as an ultra-futuristic piece of furniture for the modern gamer's existing setup to let them enjoy a helping hand during long-haul eSports sessions.
The chair, debuted just in time for April Fool's Day, features a comfortable construction that's accented by a total of six artificial intelligence (AI)-powered tentacles. Each arm is paired with a three-fingered claw for clasping items like drinks or snacks to provide them to player as required. The arms could also be used for grooming, gameplay support and more.
The Razer Cthulhu gaming chair takes a tongue-in-cheek approach to computer desk furniture, but does identify ways in which a gamer could be supported by harnessing advanced technologies.
