Level up your PlayStation 5’s audio capabilities with a gaming headset and lose yourself the immersive soundscapes from your favourite AAA titles. The PS5 supports a wide variety of headsets, including both wired and wireless models. Utilising Sony’s Tempest 3D AudioTech, a compatible gaming headset can create directional cues in your games, so you’ll stay one step ahead of your enemies. Furthermore, your team's co-ordination will be on another level, thanks to the PS5’s voice capabilities found in the built-in party chat. Simply plug your headset in and let the banter begin.
The PlayStation 5 is Sony’s latest generation of high-powered consoles, with support for an eye-watering variety of games. Many of these titles have highly competitive online communities, thus, to stay ahead of the game you need to be able to co-ordinate with your team. This is made simple with the wide range of gaming headsets that are available for the PlayStation 5.
Connecting a wired headset is as simple as plugging it into the dedicated jack that is built into every PS5 controller. Alternatively, if you have a digital headset instead of an analogue, you can plug the USB cable directly into one of the PS5’s USB ports.
For wireless connectivity, you’ll require a headset with a USB dongle. Simply plug the dongle into a USB port on the console and enjoy crisp audio from the paired headset. The PS5 boasts Bluetooth technology but it is limited to peripherals such as controllers and keyboards, therefore you’ll need an external dongle to connect a headset.
Once you’ve decided upon your headset, you can adjust its settings from the PlayStation’s menus. This includes options for changing the sound output of both chat and games, adjusting microphone sensitivity, alongside the ability to enable and disable 3D audio. Configure everything to your liking and get ready to go.
Are you lost when it comes to the world of gaming headsets? Never fear, we’ve got your back! Over on our blog, you’ll find a handy guide on everything you need to know when choosing the perfect headset.

Many headsets for the PS5 will also work perfectly with your gaming PC. Simply connect via its cable or dongle, and you’ll be able to enjoy premium quality audio on your gaming PC.
Many wireless headsets can be used with your PS5, as long as your wireless headset comes with a USB dongle. Simply insert the dongle into a USB port on your PS5, then you’ll be able to easily pair them.
If your audio is coming from your TV and not your headset, you may have a bad connection, or your PlayStation may not be configured correctly. Simply check that your headset is properly connected, by ensuring any cables or dongles are fully inserted. After you’ve confirmed it is not a problem with the physical interface, head to the sound settings of your PS5 and verify that you’ve selected your headset as the audio output.
There is no official PlayStation functionality that allows cross platform chat currently. But you may find certain games, for example Modern Warfare, do support this in-game. There are also certain work arounds such as utilising the web browser on your PS5 to run Discord.
