Multi-Platform Wired Headset

The SteelSeries Arctis Nova 1P is a wired gaming headset built for players who move between PlayStation, Xbox, Switch, PC and mobile devices. A single 3.5 mm connection works on every platform without extra adapters or driver installs. The headset weighs 280 grams and uses oval AirWeave memory-foam cushions with a stretchy headband for long-session comfort.

3.5 mm Jack and On-Board Controls

Plug the 3.5 mm cable directly into a controller, motherboard or phone to free up USB ports and avoid software dependencies. On-ear volume and mute controls let you adjust audio without leaving the game. The retractable ClearCast Gen 2 microphone stores inside the earcup when not in use, keeping the profile clean for solo play or travel.

Active Noise Cancellation Under Load

Active noise cancellation reduces background sound by up to 25 dB so teammates hear clear comms even in noisy rooms. The Nova Acoustic System with high-fidelity drivers delivers 360° spatial audio compatible with Tempest 3D Audio on PS5 and Microsoft Spatial Sound on Xbox. Parametric EQ via Sonar software tailors frequency response for sustained competitive sessions.
