Overview
Hear more, react faster and stay connected across your favourite platforms with the SteelSeries Arctis Nova 5 Wireless Gaming Headset.
Built for gamers who switch between PC, PlayStation and mobile, the Nova 5 combines high-speed 2.4GHz wireless, Bluetooth 5.3, 100+ game-specific audio presets and a 60-hour battery in a lightweight 265g design.
Whether you're chasing footsteps in a competitive shooter, exploring cinematic worlds or jumping onto a call between matches, the Arctis Nova 5 is designed to deliver clear sound, flexible connectivity and all-day comfort without tying you to one device.
Key Features & Benefits
- Hear the Sounds That Matter Most – Access 100+ game-specific audio presets created with esports professionals, audio engineers and game developers, helping emphasise useful details such as footsteps, bomb plants and other critical in-game cues.
- Change Audio Profiles Without Leaving Your Game – The Arctis Companion App lets you switch EQ presets directly from your phone, so you can optimise sound for different games without opening desktop software.
- Enjoy Detailed, Powerful Game Audio – Custom Neodymium Magnetic Drivers are designed to deliver clear highs, accurate mids and deep bass for both competitive gaming and immersive single-player experiences.
- Switch Seamlessly Between Gaming and Bluetooth – Quick-Switch Wireless lets you move between high-speed 2.4GHz and Bluetooth 5.3 at the press of a button, making it easy to jump from your game to a phone call or mobile audio.
- Keep Separate EQ Profiles for Different Connections – The headset can retain separate presets for 2.4GHz gaming audio and Bluetooth media audio, helping your game settings stay intact when you switch sources.
- Play Across Multiple Platforms – The compact USB-C wireless dongle supports PC, PlayStation, Nintendo Switch, Chromebook, Meta Quest, handheld systems and compatible phones and tablets.
- Stay Powered for Up to 60 Hours – A full charge delivers up to 60 hours of wireless gaming, enough for multiple days of play without constantly reaching for a charging cable.
- Get Back in the Game Quickly – USB-C fast charging provides around 6 hours of use from just 15 minutes of charging, ideal when you need a rapid top-up before a session.
- Communicate More Clearly with ClearCast 2.X – The upgraded ClearCast Gen2.X microphone uses a high-bandwidth chipset supporting 32kHz/16-bit audio, helping voice chat sound cleaner and more natural.
- Reduce Background Noise on PC – SteelSeries Sonar provides AI-powered noise cancellation for compatible PC setups, helping minimise distracting background sounds during team communication.
- Retract the Microphone When You Don't Need It – The ClearCast mic slides neatly into the earcup, giving the headset a cleaner appearance for music, travel or casual use.
- Stay Comfortable Through Long Sessions – At approximately 265g, the Nova 5 is lightweight enough for extended gaming sessions without the bulk of heavier wireless headsets.
- Get More Immersive Directional Audio – 360° Spatial Audio is supported through SteelSeries Sonar on Windows and is compatible with PS5 Tempest 3D Audio and other supported spatial audio systems.
- Control Essential Functions Directly from the Headset – On-ear controls let you adjust volume, mute the microphone and switch wireless modes without interrupting gameplay.
Why Choose This Product?
The SteelSeries Arctis Nova 5 Wireless is designed for gamers who want one headset to work across several devices without constantly changing settings or sacrificing sound quality.
Its biggest advantage is flexibility. You can use low-latency 2.4GHz wireless for competitive gaming, switch to Bluetooth for mobile audio, and carry your preferred game presets with you through the Companion App.
The 100+ audio profiles also make the Nova 5 especially useful for players who want game-specific tuning without spending time manually adjusting an equaliser. Add long battery life, a lightweight fit and a retractable microphone, and it becomes a headset suited not just to gaming sessions, but to everyday use as well.
For players who move between PC, PlayStation and mobile, the Nova 5 offers a strong balance of performance, convenience and platform compatibility.
