In celebration of the release of PlayStation VR today, Plantronics has announced that the RIG 4VR gaming headset is also available, the first officially licensed headset designed for use with PlayStation VR.

“Sound is an integral part of any truly immersive experience, and with this in mind we set out to design an audio headset which would complement the incredible 3D audio capabilities of PlayStation VR”, said Peter Petrides, Director Gaming, ANZ at Plantronics. “The launch of the RIG 4VR is an important step forward for us and continues our tradition of offering simple and effective solutions for users, enabling them to enjoy uncompromising sound, maintain clear two-way communication and enjoy unrivalled entertainment.”

In addition to the interchangeable, different-length cables provided for use with PlayStation VR and the Dualshock 4 wireless controllers (0.4m length for PlayStation®VR and 1.2m for the Dualshock 4 wireless controller), the RIG 4VR also features 40mm drivers paired with low-frequency resonators offering enhanced bass, whilst maintaining accuracy of sounds.
