Pulsar Gaming Gears (AplusX Inc.), a leading developer of high-performance esports peripherals, and VAXEE Corporation, a respected innovator in gaming hardware, today announced the official launch schedule of the new Pulsar eS series of esports equipment. This highly-anticipated product line is the result of the strategic exclusive partnership and joint development work between the two companies, aimed at delivering unparalleled innovation and performance to the esports community.
The initial launch wave includes the Pulsar eS FS-1 Mouse, the Pulsar eS PD170 Mousepads, and the Pulsar eS Armsleeve (Arm Long XL, L, M). All products are in running production and are not limited editions, confirming Pulsar’s commitment to making this reference-standard equipment widely available.
The Pulsar eS series is a unified vision for the future of competitive gear. Stuart Chan, CMO of Pulsar, highlighted the significance of the partnership, stating, “We’ve got two esports endemic brands coming together to create a series of products for esports, for the biggest stages.” Vincent Tang, Chairman of VAXEE, echoed this sentiment, adding, “We hope Pulsar can become a top brand in the esports field, with VAXEE becoming one of the supporting forces.”
The Pulsar FS-1 elevates the eS series with the new Link 8K Dongle, a feature that redefines gaming mouse control. Functioning as an active controller rather than a passive wireless receiver, the Link 8K allows players to instantly adjust critical settings – such as DPI, polling rate, and profiles – using its built-in buttons. This eliminates the need to interrupt intense gameplay by flipping the mouse or accessing software. Powered by an innovative dual-MCU design for stable 8000 Hz performance, and featuring a cohesive visual link to the mouse, the Link 8K enables a lighter, more performance-focused companion mouse, establishing a distinct, user-centered identity for the Pulsar brand.
Xanver Tseng, CEO of VAXEE Corporation, spoke to the core philosophy behind the mouse’s design: “So for this new shape, I wanted to increase stability, while keeping the same level of agility. For a professional esports player, I believe stability matters more than specs or features.” Meanwhile, Jake Lee, Creative Director of Pulsar, shared the design inspiration for the mouse: “Because performance and competition are the keywords, we adopted a racing theme, and applied graphic elements, and a dynamic, sleek silhouette inspired by it to our FS-1 mouse.”
