SAN DIEGO, Nov. 17, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Leading gaming
accessory brand Turtle Beach (Nasdaq: HEAR) today announced that
its Stealth 600 Gen 2 and Stealth 700 Gen
2 wireless gaming headsets for Xbox and
PlayStation® are the top-selling wireless console
headsets in North America for the
month of October according to NPD. Successors to the original
best-selling Stealth models, Stealth 600 & 700 Gen
2 headsets hit retail shelves by September, with
October representing the first full month of sales data for three
of the four models, and Turtle Beach's Stealth 600 & 700
Gen 2s for Xbox were the #1 and #2 selling console headsets
in the month. Further, the Stealth 600 Gen 2 for Xbox
debuted as the #1 wireless headset in its first month of
availability, looking to continue the trend of its predecessor
which was the overall top-selling wireless headsets in 2018, 2019,
and YTD 20201. The Gen 2s offer console
gamers the precision sound and unmatched comfort they desire, which
is extremely important for supporting gamers' undoubtedly long
sessions on the just-launched Xbox Series X|S and
PlayStation®5.
"Stealth 600 & 700 Gen 2s continue to
deliver wireless connectivity, impressive sound, and long-lasting
comfort, and are perfect for experiencing immersive game audio on
the latest Xbox and PlayStation consoles," said Juergen Stark, CEO, Turtle Beach. "2020
continues to be a record-breaking year for both Turtle Beach and
the video game industry. We've had the greatest year in our
history, and the Stealth 600 & 700 Gen
2s are clearly positioned to keep our record year going by
quickly establishing themselves as great choices for gamers this
holiday season."
With the launch of the new consoles, game audio is as important
now as ever before, and the Stealth 600 & 700 Gen
2 models deliver the premium gaming audio experience gamers
expect in this new era of console gaming. The original Stealth
600 & 700 headsets succeeded because they offered
high-quality game and chat audio and fantastic comfort at
attractive prices. The Gen 2 models offer gamers a
refined, premium build and sleeker look, plus cross-generation
console compatibility with Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One, and PS5™
and PS4™. Coupled with immersive game sound, crystal-clear
chat, all-day comfort, and Turtle Beach exclusive features like
Superhuman Hearing® and ProSpecs™
glasses-friendly tech; the Gen 2s are destined to
continue the series' run as best-selling wireless gaming
headsets. Stealth 700 Gen 2 and
Stealth 600 Gen 2 are available now at participating
retailers worldwide for the same attractive MSRPs as their
predecessors at $99.95 and
$149.95, respectively.
