Turtle Beach unveils Atlas 200 headset for PlayStation

Turtle Beach has introduced the Atlas 200, a new wired gaming headset that is the company’s first officially licensed model for the PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4.

The Atlas 200 is set to go on sale in Australia on 19 September 2025 and will be priced at AUD $99.95. The headset will also be available in multiplatform and PC-specific editions, catering to gamers on a range of devices. The PC edition matches the PlayStation version in price and includes a USB audio adapter as well as additional features accessible through Turtle Beach’s Swarm II desktop application for Windows.

According to Turtle Beach, the Atlas 200 incorporates elements from its Atlas Air flagship PC headset and the Recon 200 multiplatform headset. The headset features Turtle Beach’s 50mm Nanoclear drivers and a closed-back earcup design, optimised for spatial audio performance on both consoles and PCs.

The Atlas 200 has been designed for long hours of use, weighing approximately 280 grams. Notable comfort features include an adjustable floating headband, memory foam ear cushions, and ProSpecs glasses-friendly earcup design tailored for extended sessions and users who wear glasses. The headset also comes equipped with a unidirectional microphone that users can flip up to mute when not in use.

Connectivity is provided via a standard 3.5mm audio jack, enabling compatibility with PlayStation consoles, other gaming systems, Windows PCs, and mobile devices. The PC edition’s USB adapter and exclusive app features offer further options for Windows gamers.

Product availability and editions

The PlayStation version of the Atlas 200 will be produced in black or white, both with blue accents and the PlayStation logo to signify its official licensed status. The multiplatform and PC editions will be available in black with grey accents only.
