SteelSeries Reinvents the Best-Selling Arctis 7 for Next-Gen PlayStation and Xbox Consoles

CHICAGO – October 6, 2020 – SteelSeries, the worldwide leader in gaming, esports and console peripherals, today announces its first gaming headsets specifically made for the next generation of PlayStation and Xbox consoles – the Arctis 7X and Arctis 7P. These headsets take the best components of the original, beloved Arctis 7, and add the wireless USB-C dongle from the Arctis 1 Wireless, to create the best “Next Generation” audio experience for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.

“The start of a new console generation is one of the most anticipated events for gamers everywhere,” said Ehtisham Rabbani, SteelSeries CEO. “While this new generation of console headsets will continue to push the boundaries of resolution, visual fidelity and console frame rates, we are committed to bringing a new audio experience to gamers, worthy of a new generation. We believe that the new Arctis 7X and Arctis 7P will be, hands down, the favorite wireless gaming headsets among console gamers for this new generation of consoles.”

Arctis 7P – The Best Wireless Headset in Gaming Comes to PlayStation 5

SteelSeries’ original Arctis 7 won more awards than any other gaming headset – now it’s been reimagined specifically for next-gen wireless audio on the PlayStation 5, with full backwards compatibility with PS4, but also compatible with the Nintendo Switch, PC and mobile devices.

Using SteelSeries’ innovative wireless 2.4GHz USB-C dongle, gamers can easily swap between gaming on PlayStation consoles, Nintendo Switch, PC and mobile. This ultra-low latency 2.4GHz lossless wireless technology allows gamers to get a full, high fidelity audio, lag-free gaming experience on PlayStation 5. Like the rest of the Arctis line, the Arctis 7P uses the same high-quality speaker drivers as the Arctis 7, featuring the award-winning Arctis soundscape, emphasizing subtle, yet critical sounds to give gamers an audio advantage in their favorite next-gen games.

The Arctis 7P features industry-leading battery life, with 24 hours of non-stop wireless usage, so gamers can play for days without needing to worry about whether or not their headset will need to be recharged. The headset also maintains the best characteristics of the rest of the Arctis family, like the iconic ski goggle headband design, Discord-certified ClearCast noise-cancelling microphone, and on-headset controls that allow gamers to easily adjust their volume. 
Additionally gamers can adjust sidetone (also known as mic monitoring) straight from the Arctis 7P. Sidetone allows gamers to control the amount of microphone input that is routed back into the headset, so they can choose how much of their own voice and surroundings they hear.

The Arctis 7P comes in a stunning white and blue to match the PlayStation 5 console and is available now for 179,99EUR//1399DKK//1999SEK//2099NOK at select regional retailers or at SteelSeries.com. 

The sleek black version is exclusively available at SteelSeries.com for 179,99EUR//1399DKK//1999SEK//2099NOK.
