SteelSeries has launched its new flagship headset, the Arctis Nova Elite, setting a new standard in gaming audio as the first Hi-Res Wireless Certified gaming headphones. Built for gaming, music, and everyday use, it combines high-quality sound, strong connectivity, and advanced features.
The Nova Elite uses custom 40mm Carbon Fiber Speaker Drivers that reproduce frequencies from 10Hz to 40kHz. With 24-bit/96kHz transmission over 2.4GHz wireless and Bluetooth, powered by the new GameHub and LC3+ codec, the headset delivers audiophile-grade clarity. A brass ring reinforces the drivers for better rigidity and performance, creating lifelike soundscapes.
A key feature is OmniPlay, which lets users connect and mix audio from up to four sources at the same time, including PC, PlayStation, Xbox, Bluetooth, and Aux. This allows players to stay in a game lobby, chat on Discord, and stream content without interruptions. The headset also includes Triple USB-C inputs for connecting multiple systems easily.
The AI-powered microphone system blocks up to 97% of background noise and supports auto-switching at 32kHz/16-bit. SteelSeries says the Nova Elite offers the best Active Noise Cancellation in gaming, and its Infinite Power System uses dual batteries for nonstop play by swapping them out when needed.
Through the Arctis App, users can choose from more than 200 game-specific audio presets and switch them in real time. The headset has been co-designed with Jacob Wagner, combining a Danish-inspired design with functional comfort. It includes an all-metal frame, metal control wheel, and memory foam earcups for durability and ease of use.
