You might have missed PlayStation's announcement revealing it has new earbuds and a new headset on the way since the reveals were made alongside the much-talked-about PlayStation Portal. While most of the focus has been on the device that will allow you to play your PS5 on a screen in the palm of your hand, PlayStation has now confirmed pre-order details for its earbuds and headset, both of which will be available to buy through PlayStation Direct starting on November 9, 2023.
The list of countries, led by the US and UK, in which both devices will be available to pre-order, along with other details about both and the PlayStation Portal, can be found on the PlayStation Blog. The earbuds and headset pre-orders will open at 10 a.m. local time on the date above, at which point we will see just how popular they will be. While the Portal appears to be a bigger deal in Japan, selling out almost everywhere, other items, like the PS5 Spider-Man cover, have been snapped up immediately, even when restocked.
The PlayStation Portal might keep selling out in Japan, but pre-orders across multiple retailers in the US are still available.
The Pulse Explore Earbuds are the first set of earbuds ever created by PlayStation and will launch on December 6, 2023. Coming with a case to keep them safe, each earbud is equipped with a mic so you can communicate with others while playing online. They also boast AI-enhanced noise rejection technology that will attempt to block out as much background noise as possible. You'll have to pay a lot for all that tech with the earbuds retailing at $199.99.
