In quite a surprise, peripheral maker Mad Catz is using one of it's 9 lives to come back this year. After the company went bankrupt in March of 2017, nearly all the companies assets were bought by a Chinese holding company that wanted to keep the brand alive. The holding company is composed of people who worked for the Chinese factories, company spokesman Alex Verrey said "It's not like people are just using the Mad Catz name to push out a new and unrelated range of products."
I think it's pretty awesome that a bunch of the factory workers got together to save the company. And the products look really interesting too. I had always lusted over a R.A.T 9, but never pulled the trigger. The new R.A.T Air definitely has my attention.
The company's website is now live with details about each of its new products, including 8 mice, 2 keyboards, 2 headsets and several mousepads. Yes, Mad Catz is actually making a set of earbuds with a boom mic for competitive gamers, and bringing back the Rat Pro mouse (now Rat Pro X3) with its swappable sensors, analog scroll wheel and swappable teflon or ceramic feet.
