Sony's PlayStation Gold Wireless Stereo Headset released in 2014 for the PS4, as a follow up for 2012's Pulse for the PS3. While it wasn't the best gaming headset on the market, it was comfortable and did the job well enough for the $99 price tag. And at long last, it's getting an update, in the form of the New Gold Wireless Headset.
Detailed on both the US and EU PlayStation blogs, the headset "maintains the great features you loved about the Wireless Stereo Headset 2.0" but has a new design that sees it looking significantly less bulky, while the over-ear cushions have been "refined" for more comfort over longer gaming sessions.
The 7.1 surround sound is still present, as you'd expect, while the two noise-cancelling microphones are a brand new feature.
As with the previous model, the headset is compatible with the free Companion App that allows you to load and create audio profiles.
In addition to the wireless USB dongle, you'll find a 3.5mm jack allowing you to use the headset with PS VR and any other compatible devices.
The headset will be available in the US within the month and you can pick it up for $99.99. The European price and release date is yet to be confirmed.
