Roccat’s Excellent Vulcan TKL Pro Keyboard Launches in White December 6th
I hadn’t tried a Roccat keyboard before until I had the privilege to review two of their Vulcan Pro models earlier this year — and I became an instant fan.
Roccat’s Vulcan keyboards have a sleek, modern, slimline design that looks equally at home in a work, gaming, or content production environment. Their brushed metal baseplate and custom-designed key caps give them a look unlike any of the other mainstream gaming keyboards. And I completely love their exceptional volume control knob in the upper right corner. It looks and feels just like the knobs on a nice audio console. Although I wasn’t sure at first how much I’d use it, as a regular music listener I feel its absence any time I don’t have a Roccat keyboard on my desk.
The full size Vulcan Pro was the first keyboard with tactile switches I enjoyed using, as you can read more about in my original review. The TKL edition comes with their smooth linear switches, and I also gave it very high marks. Both of the “Pro” models use optical actuation technology inside for the fastest possible actuation time. Roccat has taken care to mimic the feel of standard mechanical switches to ensure maximum feedback for gaming or typing but with the added behind-the-scenes latency performance of optical tech.
On December 6th, Roccat will launch the Vulcan TKL Pro in a new arctic white colorway that’s just as cool-looking as the original. They first teased its release back in May. Like the model I reviewed, it comes with their linear optical switches and custom slim keycaps, and it also carries a price tag of $159.99. You can check out its official site by clicking here.
That’s not an affiliate link; I never use them as I don’t believe they’re healthy for the industry. I don’t get a kick back or incentive if you click it or decide to buy one. Roccat sent this news to me and I’m just sharing it with you.
For more details about this new keyboard, you can read the full press release below. I expect the new color will perform just as well as the version I loved earlier this year, and I’m still grateful that Roccat’s flagship keyboard has such a unique design to it compared to the rest of the market. It’s much more fun when tech companies take a bold stance and design their own aesthetic to go along with the features that gamers want, rather than just using an OEM shell that looks like everything else.

ROCCAT’S AWARD-WINNING VULCAN TKL PRO PC GAMING KEYBOARD IS COMING IN ARCTIC WHITE THIS DECEMBER
Pre-Order ROCCAT’s Latest Addition to its Award-Winning Keyboard Series Today and Maximize Your Arctic White Desktop Setup for More Mouse Movement
White Plains, NY — October 21, 2021 — ROCCAT, Turtle Beach’s (Nasdaq: HEAR) Hamburg, Germany-based PC peripheral brand, today revealed its Arctic White version of the Vulcan TKL Pro keyboard, adding another option to its award-winning PC gaming keyboard series. ROCCAT unveiled its very first Vulcan mechanical keyboard featuring the Titan Tactile Switch in 2018 at Computex Taiwan, followed by the Titan Speed Switch in 2019. In September 2020, ROCCAT added new Titan Optical Switches and smaller tenkeyless design. Titan Optical Switches offer PC gamers a true competitive advantage, with keystrokes that register 40 times faster than classic mechanical switches, and with a lifespan twice as long. The Vulcan TKL Pro White is the new tenkeyless version of the full-size Vulcan Pro. The Vulcan TKL Pro White’s sleek design with silver brushed aluminum top plate and Arctic White keys is the perfect addition for gamers looking to maximize their Arctic White ROCCAT desktop setup for a bigger range of mouse movement. The Vulcan TKL White is available for pre-order today at www.roccat.com for a MSRP of $159.99 and will be available for purchase December 6, 2021 at participating retailers.
“It’s been great to see the white tenkeyless Vulcan get so much positive feedback from our fans,” said René Korte, ROCCAT Founder and General Manager for PC Peripherals at Turtle Beach. “We actually revealed the Vulcan TKL Pro White for the first time in May by sneaking it into the background of the video announcing our partnership with SypherPK. After that we saw many requests for a white version, and we’re always pleased to deliver what the community wants.”
The Vulcan TKL Pro White, like the original Vulcan Pro, is the perfect combination of innovative design and technology, making it indispensable for gamers who demand reliability and performance. The Vulcan TKL Pro White features ROCCAT’s latest Titan Optical Switch, which actuate and deliver a ridiculous level of speed and responsiveness while retaining the signature mechanical keystroke feel. ROCCAT’s Titan Optical Switches also last longer than standard mechanical switches, doubling their lifecycle to 100 million keystrokes. The Vulcan TLK Pro White’s sleek silver aluminium plate also reinforces the keyboard for extra strength and durability and gives the keyboard its unique signature look.
The smaller tenkeyless form factor lets gamers play in a more natural, comfortable position and opens the possibility for a bigger range of mouse movements. The keyboard’s smaller design and detachable braided USB-C cable also make it the perfect companion for gamers who are on the go and in need of consistent performance. Its low-profile keys offer a flat hand position leading to less fatigue over long periods of gaming or typing, and for added functionality the Vulcan TKL Pro White has mixer-style audio controls.
To complete its stylish look, the Vulcan TKL Pro White includes ROCCAT’s AIMO lighting system and offers a vivid illumination aesthetic through the transparent key housing of the Titan Optical Switch. The Vulcan TKL Pro White can be synchronized with other AIMO compatible devices through ROCCAT’s Swarm software.
