The world’s first gaming browser ups its game from basic Chroma integration by introducing lighting effects that allow Razer Chroma-enabled devices to dynamically respond to your browsing. Opening a tab, receiving a message or downloading a file has never looked better.

Opera GX is introducing Razer Chroma RGB Lighting Effects that allow Chroma-enabled devices to dynamically respond to your browsing. From now on, whenever you start the browser, open a new tab or finish a file download (to name a few elements), your Razer gear will respond with one of a set of custom Chroma RGB Lighting Effects courtesy of Opera GX’s design team.
“Whether you’re a hardcore with a proper Battlestation or a casual with a few Chroma peripherals, we’re sure you’ll appreciate getting the most out of your gear while browsing with Opera GX. Let’s face it: you need to be focused in a game and GX is the perfect place to have fun with your setup and make it shine”, said Maciej Kocemba, Head of Opera GX.
Launched in 2019 during E3 in Los Angeles, Opera GX is the world’s first browser designed for gamers and with the things they like in mind. Opera GX initially launched with Razer Chroma RGB integration that allowed Razer Gear to match the colors of the browser. It is now stepping it up with dynamic Chroma Lighting Effects.
“We’re glad to see Opera GX continuously innovate by adding more dynamic lighting capabilities with Razer Chroma RGB. Gamers can now experience an immersive light show with Opera GX like never before” said Kushal Tandon, Director of Marketing and Business Development, Razer.
Let Chroma Lighting Effects follow your browsing
Opera GX is all about bringing the immersive gaming experience to browsing. It’s the first browser with a soundtrack and sound effects. GX now becomes the first browserwith dynamic Chroma RGB Lighting Effects that light up your Razer gear with custom animations whenever you start the browser, open new tabs, activate the RAM, CPU and network limiters or finish a file download.
Gamers can choose from one of the preset animation themes or go deeper and individually choose one of the additional effects. They can also import any gif and use it for a specific thing they do in the browser: with just one click.
Opera GX will also display a gif on your Razer keyboard whenever you get a notification from Discord, Twitch, Telegram, Facebook Messenger, Twitter, WhatsApp or Instagram.
The dynamic Chroma RGB Lighting Effects are not displayed continuously, but rather when something occurs in the browser. In order to make late night gaming or binge-watching sessions pleasant, they are dimmed in fullscreen mode.

The browser also includes a Hot Tabs Killer feature, which lets users “kill” the most resource draining tabs and GX Cleaner to purge those old unwanted files. Opera GX recently launched its own Discord server which now has more than 230k members.
