| The Stealth Pro II brings a refined design and top-tier audio to your gaming setup. |
By Jon Scarr
If you've been looking for one headset to rule every console in your house, Turtle Beach might've just found the answer. The company recently announced the Turtle Beach Stealth Pro II Wireless Gaming Headset.
It's the follow-up to the original Stealth Pro, and it's built for anyone who games between an Xbox Series X, PlayStation 5, and PC without wanting to swap cables every single time.
The Stealth Pro II Hears Everything
Turtle Beach went to some pretty wild lengths to prove how good the audio is on this thing. They actually tracked down Jinichi Kawakami, who is known as the last surviving ninja in Japan, and flew him out for a real-world test.
The idea was simple: if a gamer wearing the Stealth Pro II could hear a ninja sneaking up on them, they could hear anything. It's a fun bit of marketing, but it points to the Japan Audio Society certified 24-bit/96kHz Hi-Res Wireless Audio inside.
Multiplatform Switching with CrossPlay 2.0
The biggest draw here is the CrossPlay 2.0 technology. It supports up to four USB wireless transmitters at once, meaning you can jump between your consoles and PC at the touch of a button. You don't have to get up and move a dongle anymore.
It also features 60mm Eclipse dual drivers that use dedicated woofers and tweeters. This helps keep the bass heavy while making sure the high-end sounds stay crisp during busy matches.
Noise Cancellation and Battery Life
For those of you who play in loud living rooms, the active noise cancellation uses four internal microphones to block out background noise. If you're chatting with friends, there's a 9mm unidirectional floating microphone that uses AI to clean up your voice.
One of my favourite parts is the dual swappable batteries. Each one lasts about 40 hours, and you get a charging dock that keeps the spare ready to go. You'll never have to plug the headset into a wall to charge while you're trying to play.

Refined Design and Comfort
The look of the headset has been updated with anodized aluminum and soft-touch materials. It's meant to feel like a premium piece of gear rather than a plastic toy. The ear cushions use memory foam and include the ProSpecs relief, so you won't feel that annoying pressure if you're wearing glasses.
You can also tweak the EQ and mic settings through the Swarm II app on your phone or PC if you want a more personal sound profile.
Pricing and Availability
In Canada, the Turtle Beach Stealth Pro II Wireless Gaming Headset carries an MSRP of $499.99. Gamers in the US can pick it up for $349.99. The headset launches on May 17, 2026, and pre-orders are available now through the Turtle Beach and most major retailers such as Amazon.
There are two versions available: an Xbox-branded model that works across everything, and a PC/PlayStation version that handles those platforms along with mobile devices via Bluetooth.
