By Jon McSwain
In the highly competitive world of gaming headsets, Steelseries has firmly entrenched itself among the best. Today, their most famous line gets a complete makeover. Steelseries announced it will be releasing six new headsets from their Siberia line. Each one bringing different styles, price points, options, and more.
The first new headset in the Siberia line is perhaps its most popular, the Siberia v3 ($99 / €99,99). The v3 utilizes the Steelseries suspension band to ensure the utmost comfort during long gaming sessions. The v3 has been outfitted with brand new drivers, in hopes of achieving even better sound than the previous versions. This headset is available in white or black and equipped with a dual-jack extension, allowing these to be used with PC, MAC, different consoles and mobile devices.
Steelseries is also releasing an upgraded version of the v3, aptly named the Siberia v3 Prism ($139.99 / €139,99). This new addition will have everything the original v3 has, but it will also come with the Steelseries Engine.
