Logitech G refreshed nearly every corner of its catalog at its Play 2026 event, pairing four new Pro Series esports devices with a rebuilt Yeti 2 microphone, an expanded G3 family, fresh colorways and a McLaren-branded direct-drive racing bundle.

By Logitech G's count the lineup runs to fifteen new products, a tally that folds colorway editions in with new hardware. The esports range starts with the Pro X3 Superstrike mouse, which follows the Pro X2 series and runs on Logitech's proprietary HITS technology; the company says a nine-month development cycle produced a 50% gain in power efficiency, driven by pro testers who asked mainly for better balance and longer battery life. Next to it, the Pro X Control mousepad stretches a knitted cloth top across 400 x 460mm, with 6mm of Slimflex foam, stitched edges and a high-friction base.

The Pro X2 Rapid keyboard relies on custom magnetic switches with Rapid Trigger and Key Priority, and players can retune key sensitivity either in G Hub or on a small OLED panel built into the board. Completing the set, the Pro X3 Lightspeed headset carries a 48 kHz microphone and adjustable EQ; Logitech describes its battery life only as extended, without a figure.

For streamers and podcasters, the rebuilt Yeti is the headline. Logitech G calls it a full reinvention of the original Yeti and bills it as the first microphone to combine a proximity sensor with AI noise suppression. The sensor tracks where the speaker sits in three dimensions and adjusts gain, EQ and pickup pattern as they move, which targets the familiar problem of a voice drifting in level when a host leans back. An AI de-noiser, a color LED screen with a Yeti character guide, and G Hub support for Blue Voice profiles and custom avatars round it out.

Software arrives alongside the hardware, though Logitech does not count it among the fifteen. Streamlabs rebuilt its mobile app around Network Boost, a Streamlabs Ultra feature that merges cellular and Wi-Fi data to prevent dropped frames and adds SRT support; Logitech G pitches it as matching $10,000 mobile studio rigs. G Hub Replay is free and records gameplay on its own, then assembles highlight reels without any editing. Owners of the G502 X Plus and G502 X Lightspeed also get a free Hero sensor firmware update through G Hub that raises maximum resolution to 44,000 DPI and adds separate X and Y sensitivity.

Lower in the range, the G316 X 75 is a compact mechanical keyboard for smaller desks, and G-Keycaps is a collection of dual-shot PBT keycaps and translucent dials in four themes: Forest, City, Battlefield and Castle. A Lilac finish now covers the G305 X Superlight mouse and the G316 X keyboard in both its 75 and 98 layouts, the G502 X Plus gains two new colorways, and the Astro A50 X headset gets a Mars Red Edition.

Sim racing picks up the most new pieces. Logitech G now offers the G923 wheel and the RS50 direct-drive system as standalone, PC-exclusive units and adds RS Pedals SE, which use hall-effect sensors on both the brake and gas pedals. The RS50 McLaren Racing Edition dresses the 8 Nm RS50 wheelbase with Trueforce in McLaren's papaya color, and it can be paired with Playseat's Instinct McLaren Racing Edition cockpit.

None of the fifteen has a price or ship date yet. Logitech G says availability, regional pricing and launch timing will come through its regional channels, so whether the new Yeti's tracking sensor and the Superstrike's efficiency gain carry a premium over the models they replace remains open.
