1. Immersive technologies: HD Haptics, Chroma RGB, and THX Spatial Audio+​

The program gives indie studios access to all the necessary tools for adding HD haptics, RGB lighting, and spatial audio directly into their games.

Choose your integration path​

Option 1: Start with ready-made effects​

For faster implementation, studios can integrate through the WYVRN SDK and then use the WYVRN Effects Library, which offers ready-made haptics and Chroma effects with a simple plug-and-play setup.

Option 2: Design custom effects from scratch​

Studios that want more creative control can build their own effects using Razer's dedicated SDKs and tools.

For HD haptics, developers can integrate the Interhaptics SDK and use Haptic Composer and the Interhaptics Player to design, test, and refine custom haptic effects.

For Chroma RGB, developers can integrate the Chroma SDK and use the Web Chroma Editor to create Chroma animations and generate code snippets for easier implementation.

For spatial audio, the THX Spatial Audio+ plugin enables high-quality spatial sound integration into your Wwise workflow.

Getting started​

Path 1: Use ready-made effects​
