Turtle Beach acquires PC peripheral company Roccat

Headset company Turtle Beach is expanding into gaming peripherals. The company announced yesterday that it has acquired mouse and keyboard manufacture Roccat. The deal gives Turtle Beach access to a market of hardware enthusiasts who spend a lot of money. Roccat makes the Vulcan keyboard, which features its own Titan mechanical switches.

The terms of the deal include $14.8 million in cash. It also involves $1 million in cash or stock and $3.4 million in earnings payouts. But that is relatively affordable for Turtle Beach.
