Gaming hardware brand SteelSeries has just revealed the Arctis Nova 7 Gen 2, an upgrade to the excellent SteelSeries Arctis Nova 7.
Arctis Nova 7 Gen 2 is now available in one of three configurations, each of which is compatible with specific systems: PlayStation, Xbox, and PC. All three cost $199.99 / £179.99 / AU$199.99 and can be purchased from the official SteelSeries website or from regional online retailers. The Nova 7 Gen 2 is also compatible with Nintendo Switch 2 via Bluetooth.
SteelSeries claims the Arctis Nova Gen 2 features 40% longer battery life than the original model, now with up to 54 hours on a single charge, according to the product’s press release. If accurate, this would place it among the best wireless gaming headsets in terms of pure battery life.
The new headset also features dual 2.4GHz and Bluetooth audio, ClearCast Gen 2 microphone, and neodymium drivers with spatial audio support, all of which should create a pretty exciting premium gaming headset experience.
Plus, if you download the Arctis app, you’ll have access to preset audio profiles for over 200 games. Chances are at least one of your favorites will appear on that list, so having a custom audio profile to enjoy could inject new life into your next playthrough, or make it even better if you’re checking out a title for the first time.
The Nova 7 has been one of our favorite headsets, especially for console gamers, in recent years, so this update is great in our opinion and should make it an excellent headset.
