The PlayStation Pulse and Pulse Edge headsets support both PS Link and Bluetooth connectivities.

The company launched its first planar magnetic headset, the Pulse Elite, in 2024, after it bought the premium headphone brand Audeze, which was known for using the technology in its devices.

In its announcement, Sony says both the Pulse and the Pulse Edge make it easy to pinpoint directional cues, so that players can, say, tell where footsteps are coming from in first-person shooters. At the same time, PlayStation Link enables the headsets to deliver ultra-low latency audio and allows players to switch between devices that support the connectivity, including the PS5, the PlayStation Portal, PC and Mac.

The PlayStation version of the newer Audeze Maxwell 2 costs $329.
