On September 17, 2026, Mr. Yokies, who runs Shirogane Lab, posted an update on X announcing the pre-sale of “Keybal +.”

The pre-sale is believed to be taking place at the TKX2026 venue, and the product appears to be a kit that requires soldering rather than a finished product.

The price has not yet been announced.

In terms of specifications, it appears to be a 4-layer PCB compatible with Choc V2 and Cherry MX-compatible key switches, with backlight LEDs installed on every key.

The animation is also incredibly beautiful, making it a truly “party-loving” Keyball.

The model posted appears to be the Keyball+ 39, but attention is also focused on whether the 44/61 will be available for purchase on the day of the event.

The Keyball—arguably the original keyboard with a split trackball on the left and right.

Attention is focused on that updated version.
