*Fully compatible with Tempest 3D Audio for PS5 / Microsoft Spatial Sound
Pro-grade Parametric EQ
Feel like an audio wizard with Sonar Software and adjust nearly every aspect of sound by using a professional-grade, 10-band Parametric EQ. With a couple of clicks, highlight the head pops and critical enemy footsteps by using presets made with the best esports players.
ComfortMax System
Ultra Lightweight & Slim
Drip check. The Arctis Nova 1's stylish profile weighs just 236g/0.52lbs, ensuring comfortable wear all day long. Your ears stay cool with AirWeave Memory Foam cushions, keeping you comfy throughout your gaming session.
Height-Adjustable
It's easy to find the perfect fit with 4-points of adjustability. The height-adjustable earcups work for any head size and the flexible, stretchy band distributes the weight evenly.
Noise-Cancelling Microphone
Your keyboard clacks and munching sounds turn lowkey in favor of your voice with the ClearCast Gen 2 mic. The bidirectional broadcast-quality mic lowers distracting sounds by up to 25dB. Retract your mic completely into the earcup for a sleeker look.
Multi-Platform Support
Your Arctis Nova 1 works with many gaming platforms, as the universal 3.5mm jack supports PC, Mac, PlayStation, Xbox or Switch. Also vibe on the go with your mobile device.
Onboard Controls
The controls you need are right at your fingertips, as you can easily adjust the volume of the headset and mute yourself when necessary with the touch of a button.
