SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless
If price — isn’t the main thing, and you need the latest headphones in a wireless, console gaming-friendly package, SteelSeries has the answer — the Arctis Nova Pro Wireless headset. SteelSeries has always been known for great gaming sound quality, and the Arctis lineup has been a trusted choice for years, but this model goes above and beyond with a full suite of features, including Tempest 3D sound-enabled drivers in PS5, active noise cancellation with transparency enabled, and a microphone with AI noise-canceling technology to cut out background noise during conversations.
But the Arctis Nova Pro can do so much more. It comes with two rechargeable batteries, which can be swapped out if one is dead, a multi-system receiver for fine-tuning sound and simultaneous connectivity over Bluetooth/2.4 GHz, so you can stream music or calls to the headset, without interfering with the connection of the PS5.It’s one of the most complete console headset sets available.

Sony PS5 Pulse 3D Wireless Headset
Sony’s wireless headset, designed specifically for the PS5 console, can be safely recommended to anyone who wants a pair of high-quality headphones specifically designed for the aesthetics of the PlayStation 5. But that’s only part of what makes this headset special — it’s also specifically designed to support 3D Audio formats on the PS5, so it has a better chance of working with the latest PS5 games and supporting all the little audio cues that developers create, from pinpointing footsteps to replicating the sound of the wind blowing through the trees.

RIG 900 Max HX
RIG makes a wide range of headsets, but the latest 900 MAX HX offers the most power encased in a convenient frame. You get a fully wireless headset with a stand that serves as a charger and support for 3D Dolby Atmos. Using the app, you can customize the soundscape to match your game.

JBL Quantum 910P
JBL’s Quantum lineup of headsets has been making great strides with each iteration. However, the transition of the 810 series to the 910P is far more significant than the small difference in numbers would suggest. These headphones are wireless, with wired connectivity, and are compatible not only with the PS5, but with any other device that has Wi-Fi or Bluetooth connectivity.

You can even connect it to two sources at once, to hear your game and music or friends on Discord. While the microphone isn’t as adjustable, as others, and it can’t be removed, you can fold it up if you’re playing alone.
