It’s not April Fool’s Day, but no one told Razer when it announced its “finger sleeves” for the games. Yes, finger sleeves: These are literally small sleeves that cover your fingers to supposedly improve your grip, and these particular finger sleeves are on the market for players.
It’s not the first time Razer has announced a product that seemed too ridiculous to be real. But unlike Razer’s concept for an RGB-compatible Covid face mask, Project Hazel, this game case is now available to buy on their website.
These “non-slip” finger gloves are supposedly aimed at people who play mobile games such as Fortnite (or what kids are playing these days) to help keep their phones handy while earning their novelties Victoria Royale. According to the website, the sleeves are made of a “smooth and high-sensitivity fabric” (35% silver fiber fabric, 60% nylon, 5% spandex), are “lightweight and breathable” and have a unique size. I have to praise the restriction that Razer shows so that it doesn’t make them shine. Sometimes less is more.
Razer is not the first company to have the idea of making sleeves for games, but unlike its new market competitors, Amazon vendors with names like Powstro, Flydigi and Sameo, Razer already has real estate in homes of the players. So, Razer life stylists: go buy your little erased finger rubbers. Go ahead, I’ll wait. After all, it is important to play safe games.
While the game’s finger sleeve sounds like a joke, PC player pointed out that finger sleeves enjoy a certain level of market demand as there is now the mobile gaming industry it is estimated to be worth $ 15.1 billion. We could laugh now, but … well, we still laugh now. Good luck with Razer.

Although I personally don’t plan on buying a pack of these sleeves for my cell phone Tetris for the pleasure of playing, it wouldn’t be crazy if Razer or some other organization decided to create a new glove for fighting games with the same general approach. Heck, they can even light up for everything I care about. That was free Razer, call me!
