Razer and Philips team up to let your games control your room’s smart lights

Razer and Philips know that you’re not satisfied with the RGB LED lighting in just your keyboard, mouse, mousepad, sound card, speakers, GPU, and every other peripheral on your desk. That’s why the two companies have partnered to enable Razer’s Chroma lighting system to control Philips Hue LED lightbulbs.

Through the Philips Huge Entertainment API, Razer will sync its own Chroma-enabled devices with RGB-enabled Hue lights. And since Chroma works with and reacts to certain games, you can turn your PC room into an all-encompassing immersive gaming experience. This will work starting tomorrow with games like Overwatch, Quake Champions, and more for anyone who updates to the Razer Synapse 3 software.
