Steelseries direct is offering the best price I’ve seen all year on one of its highest end gaming headsets. The blemished box Steelseries Arctis Nova Pro wireless gaming headset – both Xbox and PC and PlayStation 5 and PC variants – are on sale for just $239.99 with free shipping after a hefty 37% off instant discount. That’s a better deal than you’ll find at any retailer like Amazon, Best Buy, or Walmart and also beats out the lowest price I saw during Amazon Prime Day.
From the Steelseries website regarding “blemished box” products:
“Save big on flawless, untouched gear in imperfect boxes. While the packaging may be slightly damaged, the product itself is in perfect condition and fully covered by the standard warranty.”

The Arctis Nova Pro is one of the highest-end gaming headsets in SteelSeries’ repertoire. It boasts excellent audio quality with support for 360° spatial sound effects (via SteelSeries Sonar for PC, Tempest 3D Audio for PS5, and Microsoft Spatial Sound for Xbox). It’s comfortable to wear even during extended gaming marathons thanks to the suspension-style headband and comfortable leatherette ear cushions. It’s durable with high quality materials and flexible steel core headband construction. And it has QoL features like simultaneous 2.4GHz WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity, active noise cancelation, and a high-performance retractable boom mic.
The one feature that undoubtedly makes the Nova Pro stand out is the ingenious hot-swappable battery system. The Nova Pro includes two removable, rechargeable batteries: one to use in your headset and the other to remain charged and ready to go in a base station that also doubles as a battery charger. This way, you get wireless freedom with zero downtime. Each battery lasts for up to 22 hours of continued use so you don’t need to swap out too often.
The base station deserves mention as well. Not only does it charge your battery, it also features a clear and legible OLED display and a handy volume control knob. On the rear are USB inputs for connecting to your PC as well as an optional 3.5mm passthrough should you want to connect your speakers directly to the base station.
The Nova Pro wireless has been my primary gaming headset for years and I highly recommend it. I’ve since upgraded the stock earcups to these aftermarket WC Freeze gel earpads and quite like them as well. Check out our Steelseries Arctis Nova Pro review by Kevin Lee for yet another positive take.
