Razer Announces European Launch for Razer Blade Gaming Laptops
Razer announced it will begin distributing its award-winning range of gaming systems in Europe next month. Initial sales will open this December 10 via Razer’s Online Retail store with the 14-inch Razer Blade laptop.
The new 256 GB QHD+ Razer Blade slated for release next month features a backlit, anti-ghosting Nordic-layout keyboard. Additionally, customers in Europe will be able to purchase 256 GB and 512 GB QHD+ and 256 GB full-HD Razer Blades with English (U.S.) keyboard layouts.
“The demand in Europe for the world’s thinnest, most powerful and portable laptop for gamers has inspired us every waking moment since we launched the Razer Blade three years ago,” says Razer CEO and Co-Founder Min-Liang Tan. We are happy to say that everything is finally in place to offer Razer’s high-performance gaming systems throughout EU in 2016, with the feature sets and product support that gamers want, need and deserve.”
Razer EU General Manager Marco Chillon says: “We are really excited to kick-off our European Blade sales in the Nordics, such an incredible gaming center with so much history. We are now working to produce keyboard layouts to meet the needs of the rest of EU as quickly as possible, as well as getting the best distributors and retailers on board for a full rollout next year. It is our pleasure to offer everyone the current generation of Blade laptops in the meantime with localized power adapter and with full support to enable users to customize their OS language.”

Why wouldn't they? That is what they sell for here in the US. It is a whole lot of computer in a small package. It's still cheaper than a MacBook Pro and higher performance.

They're about the same, but the Macbook Pro has a better display, and faster memory. In DX12 situations where a game can use multiple GPU's and mix them, unless the i7 in the Razer has Iris as well then the Macbook will also win in this case.
Also with the Macbook, it's guaranteed support for Mac Os X and Windows 10 in one machine.

The QHD model isn't available right now, I linked to one that is available.
And also I don't see why not, the Macbook Pro is actually a pretty capable machine with Windows on it.

I'm pretty sure these will start out at $2k and go up in price from there.
