On November 12, 2026, Gizmodo Japan posted new images of the Orca echo on its official X account, along with the message “Coming Soon…”
The images show the keyboard fitted with dark-colored keycaps, as well as white keycaps, switches, plates, and other parts laid out alongside it.

The post suggests that replacement accessories may be on the way, but so far it gives no release date, price, or sales details.
An announcement is expected soon.
Dark Keycap Images Follow the White-Keycap Teaser
Greenkeys previously covered the teaser showing white keycaps, which was posted on November 10.

The new image shows dark-colored keycaps paired with ink-colored legends.
It brings to mind the replacement-keycap plans mentioned in our earlier coverage, which we heard about at the August 30 preview event: options such as “gray on white” and “ink on black.”
Not Just Keycaps: A Closer Look at the Plates and Switches

The other image shows white keycaps, switches, gray and black plate-like parts shaped for the left and right sides, along with tools and screws.
I also wonder whether these plates are designed for normal-profile switches.
The keycap shape also looks slightly higher at the back than the downward-sloping profile of the stock Orca echo keycaps.
Greenkeys OfficeHowever, the shape could also slope downward toward the back, and it is hard to tell from a rendered image. It would be reasonable to expect them to use the same LSA profile as the existing Orca echo keycaps.
We look forward to seeing how far the options for customizing the Orca echo will expand, and to hearing official updates from the company.
