Not many games have peripherals designed especially for them, let alone games that are nearly 10 years old. World of Warcraft, however, is not your usual game, which is why nearly a decade after its release it is still inspiring peripheral makers to bring out new controllers inspired by it.

The latest creation by SteelSeries, the World of Warcraft Wireless MMO Mouse, is an eye-catching device with a design that's heavily based on World of Warcraft mythology.

Verdict

Overall this mouse is fast and responsive, and looks good enough when charging if you're a fan or World of Warcraft. If you want a sturdy mouse that's more concerned with performance over flashy design, and better value for money, you'll want to look elsewhere.
