WolfKing, a world leader in the innovation and creation of gaming input devices, announced a new product - WARRIOR XXTREME, the world’s first hybrid 2-in-1 PC gamepad and keyboard. The XXTREME incorporates all the features that made the original WARRIOR a must-have device for laptop gamers and LAN center patrons, while adding a second keypad for commands in massively multiplayer games or chatting with clan mates. This, coupled with the stone-cold fact that caps-lock is cruise control to cool, makes you wonder just how hardcore this keypad really is.

The XXTREME combines the original circular 54-key disc of the WARRIOR with 40 additional keys in a modified “QWERTY” arrangement on a second attached disc. This creates an easily portable mini-keyboard, eliminating the keys unneeded for gaming. A new “Blue Moon” backlight has been added to the keys – perfect for playing in low-light conditions. Two USB 2.0 ports are incorporated into the XXTREME, allowing gamers to hook up other devices such as gaming mice and headphones.

“The WARRIOR XXTREME is the next generation of PC gamepads,” said Bob Costlow, director of sales, WOLFKING. “It combines everything that made the original WARRIOR an award-winning gaming accessory, and adds a new level of functionality that will give gamers the edge they need to frag the competition.”

Like the original WARRIOR, the WARRIOR XXTREME uses standard USB keyboard drivers and requires no additional software for either Mac or Windows OS. Other features retained from the original WARRIOR include built-in volume controls and the 3-layer silicon membrane for extremely quiet use with a lifespan of over 10 million keystrokes.

At the price point Wolfking is providing ($80), it's perplexing why consumers would purchase this keypad over other cheaper and infinitely more useful products. The Warrior XXTREME is available immediately at www.dell.com/gaming
