HYTE x hololive Reveal Limited Edition Y60 PC Case

HYTE, the new PC components, peripherals, and lifestyle brand of iBUYPOWER, a leading manufacturer of high-performance custom gaming PCs, is thrilled to announce the Hakos Baelz Collab-Limited Edition of the popular Y60 PC case, which was created in cooperation with hololive English team, represented by the COVER Corporation from Japan. Visitors of Anime Expo 2022, held in Los Angeles from July 1 through July 4, can get a first-hand experience of the new Y60 Hakos Baelz edition at the HYTE/iBUYPOWER booth #E-15 in Entertainment Hall where her specific system will be built live during the show for all to see.

"I'm super happy to be part of this collaboration with iBUYPOWER and totally psyched that Rosuuri put together such a cute artwork of me! I hope these products will imbue you all with unlimited chaotic energy to take down your foes and stay ahead of the game!", said Hakos Baelz.
Hakos Baelz Y60 PC Case
HYTE delivers a unique concept with the Y60 which has pushed the envelope in the PC case market. One of the key highlights of the Y60 is the bezel-less design, comprised of three removable, tempered glass panels that flank the side and front of the case. Chamfered molding on the ceiling and floor of the Y60 further underlines the modern aesthetic and puts built-in components into a new perspective. For the Hakos Baelz Y60 limited edition case, HYTE has teamed up with famous VTuber Hakos Baelz and illustrator Rosuuri to create a unique version of the Y60 which will be available in a limited quantity of 3,000 pieces to the worldwide community. An additional 400 pieces will be available via iBUYPOWER.com for use in exclusive pre-built Gaming PC systems in late September/early October 2022.

"Our collaboration with Hakos Baelz and hololive English is truly the first of its kind for our brands", said King Perez de Tagle, Marketing Executive Producer of iBUYPOWER and HYTE. "We've captured the spirit of Bae perfectly in a fully featured, wrap-around-glass, design that only the HYTE Y60 case can accomplish. And we also could not think of a better time and place to share this worldwide reveal with fans than during Anime Expo 2022!"

The new Hakos Baelz Y60 PC Case features artwork from professional anime illustrator, Rosuuri, which displays Hakos Baelz prominently on the tempered-glass panels. Stuffed bears with "BRUH" on the vented back panel as well as the main illustration are applied using UV engraving technology for best quality and durability. Further key visuals include a Mr. Squeaks screen print in the top left corner, a Hakos Baelz x iBUYPOWER collaboration logo in the bottom right corner and even a custom dice LED power switch.

Each of the 3,400 special edition Hakos Baelz Y60 PC Cases are equipped with a custom plate in the rear of the chassis indicating the limited edition production number illustrated with dice and a hololive x iBUYPOWER collaboration logo.

Hakos Baelz desk pad included
Every order of the Hakos Baelz Y60 PC Case comes bundled with a matching Hakos Baelz HYTE DP900 desk pad. With the dimensions of 800×380 mm and Hakos Baelz visuals, the desk pad is the ultimate companion for the Hakos Baelz Y60 PC Case and completes every desk setup perfectly.

Pricing & Availability
The Hakos Baelz Y60 PC Case is expected to be available for preorder on HYTE.com for the USA and Canada directly as well as globally with select distributors for an MSRP of 280USD and 299€ for Europe. Shipping is expected to start in September 2022 depending on worldwide distribution.

The iBUYPOWER pre-built PC systems configured exclusively with the Hakos Baelz Y60 Case, including the DP900 Desk Pad, will be available in late September/early October 2022.

Folks not understanding that this is a LIMITED EDITION case. Of course its going to be priced stupidly but then so are a lot of limited edition collectors items.

They should have a regular version of the case for a lot lot less.

They tagged this case as limited edition because of the below average reviews its had. There was a PR in which they (Hyte) participated in the comments, although it might have the review comments in the link above.

I can guarantee it will sell out completely. Hakos Baelz is huge.

It's more because of it's a hololive collab and less because of lukewarm reviews, I thought this case was pretty nice myself, and I'd definitely consider it for my next build if it ever shows up around here.

Bae design is awesome, but impress me with a Chloe or Salome case desuwa~

She is from the English branch of hololive. The fandom is huge, Bae is actually one of the smaller vtubers in holo-EN, she has a little over 500K subscribers right now. They're mostly based out of Japan, but there is also an Indonesian branch, some of my favorites are from holo-ID. I can't blame you if you don't follow vtuber world, it's peak weeb.

I agree, though "not a fan" would be an understatement in my case. I only see some random anime vomit on the front and "BRUH" (my most hated word ever) on the sides. I'll give this atrocity a hard pass.

eww cringe, but anyways isn't the idea of glass panels to see whats in the box ?. Like whats the point of having glass panels if you cannot see inside ?.

Wasn't GPU mounting very limited with this case ?. to some degree dumb too.

To be honest, I would hate a Top Gun case motif even more, for example.

GN did a review on the case as well as TPU. The biggest downvote was because of the materials and 'slightly' restricted airflow, and the only problem noted with the GPU was there was room for only one and vertical mounting blocked/restricted adding on additional PCIe cards.

I dont follow because I never heard of her/them. I generally dont like ytubers but there are exceptions like GN and two or three others.

And true effort to special editions. A lot of these anime editions have some minor decals and not much more, I remember a brand doing Gundam pcs but it could perfectly pass as a regular pc. This one is good.

Yep, I too would take the basic Y60 version, without all the anime-pron barf-me-up, cause I really like the overall design, but agree that the low-profile pci slots might be a deal-breaker for many users, including me :)

Plus it actually has a USB-C port on the front I/O panel, O.M.G.....O.M.G.... the world must be coming to an end now..... hehehe :)

It actually is, it’s not really stickers some kind of paint.

Man, I would really like a Sakamata Chloe-themed version of this case, with the same attention to detail and high quality paint job as well. どうか! And make sure to send like 25 of them or so to Brazil so I can buy one. :)
