"We've noticed gamers hacking away at blending console game audio and Discord voice for quite some time," says Eros Resmini, CMO of Discord. "SteelSeries makes that whole process easy with this product and let's more gamers use Discord with their friends."

The SteelSeries Arctis 3 Bluetooth gaming headset is compatible with PC, Mac, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, VR and mobile. In fact, the Arctis 3 Bluetooth is perfect for Nintendo Switch by allowing users to pair their phones with the Nintendo Switch Online chat mobile app and still enjoy their game via the wired connection. This is the first headset with this type of compatibility for the Nintendo Switch.

SteelSeries Audio Category Manager, Brian Fallon says, "This is the first time that you can simultaneously have wired gaming audio and wireless Bluetooth. Bluetooth is incredibly useful for connecting wirelessly to mobile devices for chat and music, but as most gamers know, Bluetooth has too much latency for gaming. That is why this is a wired headset for gaming and Bluetooth for everything else."
