MSI has introduced the FORGE GK600 TKL Wireless Special Edition, a new compact mechanical keyboard series that focuses on portability, performance, and modern design. The Special Edition will be available in three versions — MARS, TOPO BLUE, and TOPO WHITE — each featuring distinct design patterns and professional-grade specifications.
The FORGE GK600 TKL Wireless Special Edition emphasizes long-term usability through PBT keycaps, which are known for their resistance to wear and shine. The MARS edition adopts a bold, futuristic styling approach, while TOPO BLUE and TOPO WHITE feature contour-inspired layouts that highlight a layered, modern appearance. Users can also customize the RGB lighting, adjusting effects and color profiles to create personalized setups.
A built-in 1.06-inch display offers quick access to battery levels, lighting profiles, and brightness settings. Dedicated hotkeys further simplify control of media playback, lighting effects, and widgets, reducing reliance on software adjustments.
With its tenkeyless (TKL) layout, the keyboard reduces its footprint, making it suitable for smaller workspaces and portable use without sacrificing primary functions. MSI has included linear mechanical switches, delivering smooth and consistent keystrokes suitable for gaming and productivity.
To improve typing acoustics, the keyboard integrates a multi-layer dampening system, combining foams and gaskets that reduce unwanted noise and enhance key feedback. This design ensures quieter operation while maintaining a solid typing experience.
The FORGE GK600 TKL Wireless Special Edition supports tri-mode connectivity, giving users flexibility between 2.4 GHz wireless, Bluetooth 5.1, and wired USB Type-C (USB 2.0) options. This allows the keyboard to adapt easily to gaming setups, office environments, or mobile devices.
Customization extends beyond connectivity with hot-swappable switch support, enabling users to replace switches without soldering. Compatibility with 5-pin switches provides wider options for those who prefer different tactile responses.
MSI confirmed that the FORGE GK600 TKL Wireless Special Edition will be available globally beginning in September 2025. Pricing and detailed regional availability will be announced separately for each market.
