Without further ado, here are our top Xbox gaming headset recommendations, ranked according to our overall preference. We've noted down each model's compatibility where relevant, so you can see which headsets can be used across multiple systems and by what methods - integrated Xbox wireless, wireless via a USB dongle, Bluetooth, 3.5mm and wired USB, for example. While all of the headsets on this list are compatible with Xbox Series X, Series S and One, many of them also work on other games consoles, like the PlayStation 5 or Switch, or for other devices like PCs, tablets and smartphones. Our list includes wired and wireless models, first-party and third-party options, at a range of price points - so no matter what your preferences are, you should find something that fits the bill here!
