In April 2020, SteelSeries acquired Nahimic audio software developer A-Volute, and in December 2020, SteelSeries acquired gaming accessory manufacturer KontrolFreek.

In July 2019, SteelSeries was acquired by Axcel, a Nordic private equity firm. SteelSeries often creates limited edition collaborations, such as the Valve CS:GO Howl Edition mouse and mousepad, and the CD Projekt Cyberpunk 2077 headset. They also have made 5XL mousepads (QcK line). Their popular products include their Rival and Sensei series of mice, Arctis headsets, and Apex keyboards. In 2012, SteelSeries received investments of undisclosed amounts from U.S.-based private equity firm Catterton Partners and China-based private equity firm ClearVue Partners. The company saw tremendous growth over the next five years as it expanded its portfolio and channels, developed the SteelSeries Engine platform, and added partnerships across the esports and the gaming ecosystem. In 2007, SteelSeries hired Bruce Hawver as CEO. Michael von Essen-Mueller, the company's first CEO, helped the company establish its brand and grow to a global footprint.

In 2008, SteelSeries acquired Ideazon, a North America-based developer and manufacturer of gaming peripherals. Soft Trading made the Icemat and SteelPad mouse mats, which influenced the company's eventual name change. The company's original name was Soft Trading, and it was changed to SteelSeries in 2007. SteelSeries was founded in 2001 by Jacob Wolff-Petersen. SteelSeries was acquired by GN Store Nord in 2021. SteelSeries (styled as steel series) is a Danish manufacturer of gaming peripherals and accessories, including headsets, keyboards, mice, controllers, and mousepads.

On both, there's a 3.5mm line in and out, as well as two USB Type-C connections for a 'first in gaming' multi system connection, so you can keep your PlayStation 5 and your PC connected at all times.Īlso, the DAC serves as an 96kHz/24-bit amplifier, similar to that of the Arctis Pro + which also touts a wide 10-40kHz frequency response. The DAC for both the PlayStation and Xbox versions is well designed (each one's slightly different looking), and keeps a lot of these settings close at hand so you can switch them around in game, without alt-tabbing out. You can also pick from several levels of sidetone so you know what you sound like to others, with an impressive lack of delay. There are a bunch of other toggles to play around with to get your audio the way you want it, including a game-chat, mic and master mixer right there in the software.

Sonar's spatial audio is on point, and the slider gives you control over how performant or immersive it is, so you can be more accurate in competitive games and less so if you're just watching a movie or playing a walking sim. It even delivers presets for a bunch of top games to help you make the most of this insider knowledge, and more presets are being added as time goes on. Particularly, since it highlights which sections of the curve relate to certain sounds in game (footsteps, explosions, etc.). While there are some hardware-specific Sonar features like the upcoming AI noise cancelling, Sonar equaliser curve has the potential to benefit any old headset. Listening to the same tune through the Arctis 7X on the same Sonar settings, I could not say the same. My inner raver was supremely delighted when I discovered Minecraft trap actually slaps-I almost felt my chest cavity vibrate vicariously, like a creeper ready to pop. I was impressed with how much I could crank the bass and gain up without an iota of distortion, too. It works via a fully adjustable parametric curve, rather than simple sliders, and gives audiophiles a lot to play with. Front and centre is the comprehensive equaliser. Speaking of software, something called Sonar has now been deployed in the SteelSeries GG software, which is a fantastic accompaniment to the Nova Pro.
