Earlier this month we told you guys and gals about two new accessories from Microsoft coming out for your Xbox One. There’s the Xbox One Stereo Headset Adapter and the Xbox One Stereo Headset. Both were slated to come out in early March, but no firm release date was shared. It looks like Microsoft was able to do something they don’t do often, ship a product early. You can pre-order the accessories and get them next week.
Head to the Microsoft Store website and you’ll see the Xbox One Stereo Headset Adapter available for pre-order. It’ll set you back just $24.99 and has a release date of 02/25/2014. Which is next Tuesday. We’re definitely pre-ordering one of these. The Xbox One Stereo Headset Adapter allows you to plug in your own headset into the Xbox One controller. Assuming it’s compatible you’ll be able to adjust the chat audio, mute, and more all from your controller.
Now we’re not seeing a release date for the Xbox One Stereo Headset on the Microsoft Store website, but we are seeing it on Amazon. Like the adapter, the release for Microsoft’s stereo headset is set for 02/25/2014 with a retail price of $79.99. You can pre-order through Amazon and get it next week. This is a good option for those who don't already have a headset they use for gaming and want something out of the box to just work with their Xbox One.
I’m thinking I’ll take one for the team and pre-order both of these if you all would be interested in a hands-on/review. Sound off below if you’re planning on getting one these accessories for your Xbox One.
