Elgato has announced a new brand strategy called “Stream Deck Everywhere”. The company aims to bring the Stream Deck platform to more users, in more ways, and with more customisation control than ever before.
Part of this strategy includes new products such as Stream Deck Modules, Network Dock for Stream Deck, a new Virtual Stream Deck app, and Corsair Scimitar Elite SE gaming mouse with Stream Deck macro integration.
Stream Deck Modules: DIY and integration-ready.
First up is Stream Deck Module, a barebones version of the lauded consumer product that enables hobbyists, entrepreneurs, and manufacturers to embed the iconic technology in their projects, instead of allocating months or even years to developing a control interface from scratch. Available in 6, 15, and 32-key variations, the module comes housed in a durable aluminum chassis that’s ready to drop straight into a custom mount, machine, or product.
Like its retail counterparts, Stream Deck Module is compatible with Stream Deck software and third-party apps, while comprehensive documentation removes the guesswork for makers and manufacturers to bring their big ideas to life—faster, smarter, and without compromise.
Virtual Stream Deck: Control at the tip of your cursor
Perhaps the most transformative of all, Virtual Stream Deck (VSD) is a software-only version of Stream Deck that brings powerful, customizable control to any screen. Users can create fully interactive control pads anywhere on their desktop—fixed in place for quick access or summoned with a mouse click or hotkey. It makes Stream Deck more accessible than ever, putting Elgato’s iconic platform in every corner of a user’s workspace.
Initially launching exclusively for owners of Stream Deck hardware and select CORSAIR peripherals, like the Xeneon Edge and the Scimitar Elite WE SE Mouse, Virtual Stream Deck will soon roll out to more devices, unlocking intelligent control across touchscreens, mice, keyboards, and beyond.
Corsair Scimitar Elite Wireless SE MMO Gaming Mouse
The Corsair SCIMITAR ELITE WIRELESS SE is a wireless MMO gaming mouse that features 16 programmable buttons, with 12 on the side for thumb access. With the SCIMiTAR ELITE WIRELESS SE’s built-in Stream Deck functionality, those 12 side buttons can now be programmed to the Stream Deck’s functions. They also unlock the Virtual Stream Deck, which allows for clickable shortcuts positioned anywhere on-screen or via hotkeys. The service is completely customizable via the Elgato Stream Deck software, and plugins and profiles can be found on the Elgato Marketplace.
Scissor Keys: A new tactile experience
Rounding out the announcements is a scissor-switch key variant of Stream Deck MK.2, a faster, crisper alternative to the iconic membrane design. With shorter travel and sharper actuation, these new switches offer enhanced speed and precision for high-frequency tasks and quick hands. The tighter, more responsive feel also lends itself to typing-style interactions, paving the way for new use cases that benefit from rapid, multi-layered input and control.
