Back in January at CES, Razer detailed the Razer Forge TV, an android console for the TV that can stream games from your PC. Today, Razer announced that the Razer Forge TV and the Razer Serval (an accompanying Bluetooth gaming controller) are available for pre-order — both from RazerStore and Amazon — and will begin shipping for North America within two weeks.
The Razer Forge TV is $99.99, the Serval is $79.99, but the Forge TV and Serval bundle is $149.99.
The Razer Forge TV's goal is to bring hardcore PC gaming, Android gaming and entertainment to your living room. Featuring a quad-core processor and gaming-grade graphics, the Forge TV can support up to four Razer Serval controllers. Users can switch between their mobile devices and Forge TV, use Google Play, Android TV apps, and movies, music, and web content can be sent from a mobile device to the Razer Forge TV with built-in support for Google Cast.
Razer's Serval gaming controller is designed for Razer Forge TV. It is a Bluetooth controller with an adjustable clip for mobile phones, and can be used with Forge TV, Android devices and PC.
