Best GTA 6 headsets for PS5 and Xbox across every price tier
SteelSeries, Turtle Beach, and more tested for Tempest 3D and Dolby Atmos support ahead of Rockstar's release.
With GTA 6 set to support Tempest 3D Audio on PS5 and Dolby Atmos on Xbox, choosing the right headset can shape how you experience the game. GamesRadar+ tested many models from Razer, Logitech, SteelSeries, Turtle Beach, and Corsair to find the best options at every price point.
The SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless is the top overall recommendation for console players. It delivers strong bass, clear mids, and spacious directional audio, plus active noise cancellation and hot-swappable batteries. The newer Arctis Nova Pro Omni offers slightly better audio and an extra USB port, but its Hi-Res certification only benefits PC users, and it often costs $100 more. On PS5, the Pro Wireless runs $289.99; on Xbox, it is $299.99.
For PS5 players on a budget, the Turtle Beach Atlas 200 is a wired, licensed headset that supports Tempest 3D Audio and can be found at a low price during sales. The SteelSeries Arctis Nova 5P Wireless sits in the middle, offering over 300 per-game presets via the Arctis app, though it lacks ANC and hot-swappable batteries. On Xbox, the Turtle Beach Stealth 500 provides wireless connectivity and solid audio at a lower price, while the Arctis Nova 5X adds Xbox compatibility and the same preset library.
Dropping to a cheaper headset means losing features like simultaneous 2.4GHz and Bluetooth, ANC, and swappable batteries. But for players simply moving beyond TV speakers, the budget and mid-range options still deliver strong audio performance.
