Logitech G has announced a new Racing Series featuring a range of wheels, gear shifters and more
As part of its LogiPlay 2024 event, gaming hardware brand Logitech G has unveiled a new line of Racing Series products. This collection of sim racing gear includes a new wheel hub, a range of customizable wheels, and more.
The main newcomer is the Logitech G RS Wheel Hub, which is designed for versatility and broad compatibility with a range of racing titles. It features customizable RGB lighting and adjustable gear shift knobs, and is compatible with the full range of Racing Series wheels, as well as several recently announced Logitech G x Momo wheels.
There will be a special PC version of the Logitech G RS Wheel Hub that will cost $129.99 / around £100, and an Xbox and PC variant that will be slightly more expensive at $149.99 / around £115. Logitech G states that both versions of the RS Wheel Hub will also work on other platforms, depending on the compatibility of the Wheel Base they’re attached to.
Also announced is the Logitech G RS Track Wheel, a lightweight wheel that’s compatible with the Logitech G RS Wheel Hub out of the box. It features an ergonomic aluminum and TPU design with a breathable grip pattern that’s ideal for endurance and performance during long races.
Those who prefer a more traditional wheel shape should check out the Logitech G RS Round Wheel . As the name suggests, this new wheel is round and designed for virtual rally racing. It’s made from silicone leather and lightweight aluminum, and is also compatible with the Logitech G RS Wheel Hub. Both the Logitech G RS Track Wheel and the Logitech G RS Round Wheel cost $69.99 / around £55.
Of course, no setup would be complete without a shifter and handbrake. The new Logitech G RS Shifter & Handbrake offers seamless two-in-one shifting that lets you toggle between sequential shifting and handbrake functions. It also comes with a variety of mounting options and a height-adjustable handle to make it easier to position for comfort.
Two can be paired for use as a separate dedicated shifter and handbrake, which seems ideal for those looking for the most realistic feel possible. The Logitech G RS Shifter & Handbrake will be the most expensive entry in the Racing Series, priced at $149.99 / £129.99.
Finally, the brand also announced the Logitech G RS QR adapter. This adapter is compatible with a range of Logitech G Pro racing bases and, according to the manufacturer, almost all steering wheel options. It will allow you to use the vast majority of 70mm and 50.8mm PCD steering wheels with your PC, giving you full customizability and control over your setup. It costs $59.99 / around £45.
All products in the Racing Series will be available from September 17th via the Logitech G websiteWhile far from cheap, many Logitech G products rank among the best racing wheels and best Xbox racing wheels on the market today, so these new peripherals are definitely worth keeping an eye on.
