Gamers across the nation are taking note as Logitech G today launched POWERPLAY 2, a new wireless charging mouse pad designed to provide continuous power for gaming mice. The system aims to eliminate battery concerns, a common frustration for both competitive and casual players. This new release also brings a slimmer design and a more accessible price point compared to its predecessor.
The central appeal of POWERPLAY 2? Uninterrupted gameplay. Unlike traditional charging solutions, POWERPLAY 2 keeps compatible mice powered up whether they’re zipping across the pad or sitting idle. That means no more pausing for quick charges or getting tangled in cables right in the middle of a match. It’s a subtle but crucial quality-of-life upgrade that could make all the difference during extended sessions.
Design and Technology Behind the Power
POWERPLAY 2 introduces a thinner profile, just 3.5mm thick, which should feel more natural underhand for long stretches of play. Logitech G has also expanded the charging area by 15%, aiming for better charging efficiency. It’s not a complete redesign, but the tweaks are meaningful.
At the core of the system lies a low-frequency electromagnetic field, which gets picked up by a small component called the POWERPLAY 2 Charging Coin. Gamers insert this Coin into any compatible Logitech G mouse, and charging starts immediately upon contact with the pad. The system supports full use while charging, courtesy of Logitech G’s LIGHTSPEED wireless tech—which, frankly, has already earned a solid reputation for speed and reliability. What’s more, the Charging Coin is swappable between supported mice, which is a thoughtful nod to users who like to switch things up.
Broad Compatibility and a Growing Ecosystem
Compatibility is another strong point. POWERPLAY 2 works with a wide range of Logitech G mice, meaning gamers aren’t tied to a single model. At launch, it supports ten models, with more expected to follow. Here’s the current lineup:
- PRO X SUPERLIGHT 2 DEX
- PRO X SUPERLIGHT 2
- PRO X SUPERLIGHT
- PRO Wireless
- G903
- G703
- G502 X PLUS
- G502 X LIGHTSPEED
- G502
- G309
For gamers who already own one of these popular models, POWERPLAY 2 slots in effortlessly. And if you’re someone with multiple Logitech G mice—as many enthusiasts are—the ability to move the Charging Coin between devices adds an extra layer of flexibility.
Pricing and Availability
The Logitech G POWERPLAY 2 is available now, priced at INR 13,995. You can find it on Amazon.in and through various gaming retailers. It’s not exactly budget gear, but for what it offers, it might just be worth it.
Logitech’s Vision for Gaming
Since 1981, Logitech has been in the business of designing hardware that bridges people with the digital world. Whether it’s for work, creativity, gaming, or streaming, the company’s broader mission has been to expand human potential. As a publicly traded company on the SIX Swiss Exchange (LOGN) and the Nasdaq Global Select Market (LOGI), Logitech continues to roll out products that reflect evolving user needs. POWERPLAY 2 is a clear example of this trajectory—a tool built to support seamless, immersive digital experiences.
For gamers, the launch of POWERPLAY 2 feels like a solid step toward a cleaner, wire-free future. The idea of a perpetually charged mouse isn’t just a technical flex; it could genuinely change how players approach long-form gameplay. As the gaming space continues to evolve, products like POWERPLAY 2 might not just be nice to have—they might become essential.
