Tritton’s first line of Xbox One headsets create new chat options for gamers

Previously announced at E3, Tritton’s line of Xbox One gaming headsets is shipping, with two of the three models now available. These are the first Tritton headsets designed specifically for use with Xbox One.

The Kama headset is the middle-tier entry in the Tritton line, featuring a lightweight build and 40mm stereo speakers. It plugs directly into the Xbox One’s headset adapter via a 3.5mm jack (meaning it’s also compatible with other devices that use the same connection), and it costs $60. The Kunai headset is a step up from the Kama in terms of sound quality. The design is roughly the same as the cheaper headset, but it features superior acoustics, increased comfort, and a detachable microphone. That one retails for $80.

The budget-oriented Kaiken doesn’t appear to be available just yet, though Tritton’s website lists it as an “end of July” release. It’s a mono, chat-only headset, similar in design to the Xbox 360’s official chat-only headsets from Microsoft though the Trittons are bulkier. That one’s going to retail for $45 once it’s available.

Best Xbox One deals: How to buy the discontinued console
Xbox One S bundle deals

The Xbox One has been officially discontinued, but that doesn't mean it's unattainable. If you prefer the console over the new Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S, you can still buy refurbished units from retailers like Amazon. With its expansive library of games that will keep both casual and hardcore players busy for a long time, the Xbox One remains a meaningful purchase, despite Microsoft's rollout of its new generation of consoles. While it struggled against Sony's PlayStation 4 due to a rocky launch in 2013 because of a limited selection of titles and a higher price tag, the Xbox One gracefully recovered. Helping it bounce back were console exclusives from the Halo, Forza, and Gears of War series. If you're planning to buy the Xbox One to enjoy video game deals on these exclusive titles, as well as popular cross-platform games like Assassin's Creed Valhalla, Cyberpunk 2077, Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, and Red Dead Redemption 2, we've gathered the best Xbox One deals available online to help you in your search.

Another important characteristic of the Xbox One is its fantastic multimedia capabilities, with the Xbox One S being one of the most affordable 4K media players available on the market. The Xbox One S and the more powerful Xbox One X both boast a 4K Blu-ray player, a feature that isn't found in the PlayStation 4 Pro. For gamers who also want the option to watch their favorite movies and TV shows in crisp 4K from their console, the Xbox One is the machine for you.

Is Starfield on Xbox One?
Key art for Starfield.

Starfield is one of the biggest games of the year and space exploration has never looked so good (especially on a new PC with the correct settings tweaked). Released natively for PC and Xbox Series X, a lot of gamers are going to be left out of Bethesda's latest RPG — it'll never be released on PlayStation 5 or Nintendo Switch. But there's good news if you're still playing on a last-gen Xbox One. While Starfield isn't being released on the older console directly, there's still a way to play on Xbox One.

There are also a few other ways to play Startfield without an Xbox at all.

All Xbox One games with mouse and keyboard support

While the last-gen Xbox One isn't as powerful as the Xbox Series X, it's still a worthwhile console and has a huge library of great games.

If you're looking to stay competitive while playing online multiplayer games versus next-gen console and PC players or are just looking to avoid some wonky console interface that's difficult to navigate, you may want to try using a keyboard and mouse with your Xbox One. A keyboard and mouse will give you better precision than your standard Xbox One controller so you can keep up in cross-platform games without shelling out money for a top gaming PC.
