Nacon is pleased to announce that their latest range of RIG Pro Series headsets will be available worldwide starting today, October 4th 2022. This means there will be eight new gaming headsets available for all starting today within three ranges, the RIG 300 Pro, RIG 500 Pro, and RIG 800 Pro.
Wired or Wireless – Your Choice.
I used to own one of the RIG 800 wireless headsets and the sound quality was actually pretty darned incredible. This was when they were under the Plantronics brand and not Nacon. Some of the new features of the new RIG Pro Series sound pretty impressive such as the addition of a multi-function base station that comes with the RIG Pro 800 range.
However, to keep costs down, of course, the cheaper options have fewer features which are totally understandable to help keep it friendly on the wallet.
As mentioned there are eight new headsets being released with a variety of wired and wireless.
