Key Features

200+ Game-Specific Audio Presets

The SteelSeries Arctis Companion app puts tuned profiles for games including Call of Duty and Fortnite on a mobile device. Players can select sound settings designed to make useful in-game cues such as footsteps easier to hear while they play.

Separate Gaming and Mobile Presets

Arctis Nova 3P Wireless can retain one sound profile for the 2.4 GHz gaming connection and another for Bluetooth listening. Press the power button to change modes, and the preferred Bluetooth music preset activates automatically when that connection takes over.

Low-Latency USB-C Cross-Platform Wireless

The compact L-shaped dongle supplies 2.4 GHz wireless audio for PlayStation, PC, Nintendo Switch and other USB-C compatible devices. Its space-conscious shape helps keep adjacent ports accessible, while Bluetooth extends listening to phones and tablets.

Up to 40 Hours and Fast Charging

A full charge supports up to 40 hours of playback. When time is short, 15 minutes of charging provides up to 9 hours, helping the headset return to the game without a long wait.

Neodymium Magnetic Drivers

Custom magnetic drivers produce the deep, detailed soundscape SteelSeries designed for games. The result is audio built to present both large effects and smaller environmental details across a wide range of titles.

Detachable 32 kHz/16-Bit ClearCast Microphone

The high-bandwidth ClearCast microphone captures voice at 32 kHz/16-bit for clear communications during team play. It detaches when the headset is being used for music or mobile listening.

260 g Dual-Hinge Design

At 260 g, this over-ear headset keeps weight low for extended sessions, while rugged dual-hinge construction balances long-wear comfort with durability. The removable microphone also supports a cleaner setup away from the console.
