Pwnage is launching the Vanta, a wireless gaming mouse that lets users physically adjust the click mechanism. This feature matters because it allows buyers to fine-tune the tactile feel of their input device without compromising performance. The company claims this is the first gaming mouse to offer such mechanical adjustability.
Mechanical tuning of click force and travel without impacting latency
The device relies on a lightweight magnesium chassis that weighs just 49 grams. Pwnage designed this build to be rigid enough to prevent flexing while keeping the overall mass low. The mouse also features a custom-tuned PixArt PAW3950 sensor that users can reposition within the shell.

- Polling Rate: 8K

A core technical highlight is the Vantage Click System, which uses screws on the top shell to modify click geometry. This single adjustment changes the click force, pre-travel, actuation distance, force curve, and return feel. Users can tune the left and right clicks independently to match their specific preferences.
The Vanta supports an 8K polling rate via a 2.4 GHz wireless connection. Pwnage states that altering the mechanical click settings does not impact battery life, latency, or power consumption. This ensures that users can customize the feel of the mouse without sacrificing the responsiveness required for competitive gaming.
The standard black, white, and platinum color variants are priced at $159 USD (around $159). The special Nacho color variant costs $169 USD (around $169). Pwnage confirmed that shipping for the Vanta will begin on September 28.
