Introduction

While still one of the newer kids on the block, having only been around for a couple of years at this point, Roccat, makers of high end gaming peripherals have been rivalling the big boys since day one. Today they’re hoping to do that once more with a revamp of a mouse that I like very much, the Kova. This one, termed the Kova +, brings tweaked specifications and some new features that Roccat is hoping will make it perhaps the best ambidextrous mouse available. Let’s see if they’re right.
