I believe many gamers share the frustration of having cold hands in winter and a thick, uncomfortable chair in summer.
Now, Razer has introduced a new product to help solve these issues.
At CES 2025, Razer unveiled a new concept product—Project Arielle.
Project Arielle might sound complex, but it’s actually quite simple: it’s a gaming chair with heating and cooling functions.
This gaming chair consists of two parts: a PTC heating system and a bladeless fan cooling system. The PTC system, similar to the seat heating found in most cars, uses a semiconductor ceramic material with a positive temperature coefficient as its core. This material’s resistance increases significantly with temperature, maintaining a constant temperature.
On the Arielle gaming chair, the PTC system can keep the temperature at a maximum of 30°C, providing support in cold environments while effectively preventing low-temperature burns.
The other part is a bladeless fan system with three different speed settings. The ducts surround the edges of the seat back, delivering a large amount of air through small holes to the body. According to Razer, the cooling system can lower the perceived temperature by 2-5°C in relatively dry environments.
The controller for this temperature system is located on the right side of the chair cushion, featuring only three buttons and supporting touch sensitivity.
Heating and cooling functions—what does that remind you of?
That’s right, air conditioning.
By 2025, all products are becoming smarter, and Razer is no exception.
The Arielle gaming chair integrates a smart system, with sensors on the chair that can detect room temperature and automatically adjust accordingly. It also supports using an app to customize specific temperature ranges or schedule heating and cooling functions.
In other words, Razer has essentially moved an air conditioner to the back of the chair, and it’s even variable speed.
In addition to this smart air conditioning system, Razer has added its signature element to the Arielle gaming chair—RGB light strips.
The light strips work in conjunction with the temperature system. When the Arielle gaming chair is in cooling mode, the light strips emit blue light. When the chair switches to heating mode, the RGB light strips change to red, visually displaying the operating status and creating an integrated visual and tactile experience.
RGB light strips are commonly found in Razer products. With a comprehensive range of peripherals, Razer has integrated RGB light strips, allowing the Arielle gaming chair’s light strip to sync with other devices equipped with RGB light strips. This synchronization of lighting and vibration effects enhances the gaming rhythm, further immersing players in the experience.
The Arielle gaming chair is ergonomically designed to keep the lumbar and back muscles relaxed and healthy during extended use. Of course, remember to get up and move around occasionally.
Before this, Razer also launched a similar product—the Fujin Pro.
The Fujin Pro is a high-end gaming chair designed specifically for gamers, with its main selling point being its ability to keep players cool.
The Fujin Pro uses a blend of thermoplastic elastomer and polyester fiber to create a silky, breathable mesh for the seat back, ensuring that players remain cool during long gaming sessions.
The Project Arielle gaming chair can be seen as an evolution of this, adding a more active temperature control system to the mesh back of the Fujin Pro.
As a concept product, the Arielle gaming chair may not appear exactly as it did at CES 2025, but based on Razer’s track record, some features of concept products usually make it into mass-produced versions.
However, it’s important to note that the Project Arielle or any gaming chair with some of its features will not be cheap. Although there is no pricing information yet, the already mass-produced Fujin Pro is priced at nearly $820, and the more advanced Arielle will only be more expensive.
