Sony confirmed the PlayStation Pulse wireless headset will be released on November 19. It will be available in the US, UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, and over a dozen other countries. Pre-orders for the headset will commence on October 29. Availability details for other regions will be announced at a later date.
The PlayStation Pulse headset is priced at $100 and will be offered in white and midnight black color options. This pricing positions it $50 lower than Sony's PlayStation Pulse Elite, which is the company's first planar magnetic headset.
The headset incorporates larger planar magnetic drivers compared to the previous model. Sony states these drivers provide fuller, deeper bass while maintaining the audio clarity found in the Pulse Elite. The spatial accuracy of the drivers is intended to assist users in identifying directional audio cues during gameplay. The microphone includes AI-enhanced noise rejection to reduce background sounds.
Connectivity options for the PlayStation Pulse include Bluetooth and the PlayStation Link protocol. PlayStation Link enables connection to compatible devices such as the PS5, PlayStation Portal, Mac, and PC. This technology is designed to facilitate seamless switching between connected devices and deliver lossless, ultra-low latency audio.
