Corsair has announced it will close Drop's online storefront by March 31, absorbing the premium peripheral brand into its own operations. The acquisition, completed in December 2023, was intended to expand Corsair's reach beyond basic gaming gear into the enthusiast keyboard market. Corsair MAKR 75 DIY keyboard kits already showcase this integration.

Drop.com will cease operations for new orders after March 25, with the site transitioning to showcase past collaborations and limited edition products. While Corsair promises many Drop products will continue through its channels and partners, the announcement suggests a significant scaling back of Drop's independent operations. The exact scope of these changes remains unclear.

This move represents a strategic consolidation of Corsair's peripheral portfolio, bringing Drop's premium design expertise under the Corsair umbrella. Customers who enjoyed Drop's unique collaborations and limited runs will need to watch Corsair's channels for future exclusive releases. The closure marks the end of Drop as a standalone brand, though its influence will likely persist in Corsair's enthusiast-focused product lines.
