My favourite tech at Gamescom is this "falcon-shaped" split gaming keyboard


This falcon-shaped keyboard has everything I'm looking for - an ergonomic design, FPS-focused features and a great typing feel. Too bad it costs this much.

The left side houses all of the internals, so you can use it fully standalone as a keypad, giving you a huge amount of mousing space even if you have a small desk. The big difference here is the inclusion of four layers of sound dampening poron and silicone, quieting the keyboard while also making its report deeper and more satisfying. The Falcata is also very capable when it comes to gaming, with a laundry list of " best mechanical keyboard 2025" features: magnetic (Hall Effect) switches, rapid trigger (keys react instantly to being pressed or released rather than only when passing set depth thresholds), SOCD (pairing keys so that pressing one automatically disables the other, useful for side-strafing in FPS titles), 8000Hz polling (rinses your battery life to minimise input latency).
