Victrix Gambit Headset for PS4/ PS5

When designing the headset, we wanted to make it for every day and tournament use. By creating a headset that can be used in wireless or wired mode, we’ve cut the need to buy two headsets for different functions. This 2-in-1 functionality is just one of the many premium features we’ve packed into the Victrix Gambit Wireless Gaming Headset. Experience the precision engineered audio, that optimizes your gaming, through plush earcups that offer all-day comfort during even the longest gaming sessions. With convenient audio controls, like on ear or in-line volume dials and a flip-to-mute mic, you’ll never miss a moment making sound adjustments. Our bi-directional, noise-canceling mic utilizes the same technology created for the pilot’s headsets in the Cobra attack helicopter, so you know your commands will be heard loud and clear. 

What is Spectral Hearing™?​  

Spectral Hearing is the name we’ve given the expertly engineered sound in the Victrix Gambit Wireless Gaming Headset. We’ve designed the acoustic cavity in a way to provide a dynamic range of mids, lows, and highs from the large 50mm speaker drivers. This, all paired with 3D Audio on PS5, provides an immersive experience that lets you hear your enemy before you see them. This fine-tuned technology also works alongside the noise-isolating vegan leather ear cushions to deliver optimal sound for any gaming environment. 

How do I pair the Victrix Gambit Wireless Gaming Headset?  

Plug the dongle into a USB port on the console and power on your headset. Both should pair automatically.   

What if the headset and dongle do not pair automatically?  

First, locate the “CONNECT” button on the side of the dongle. Press and hold this button until the LED light begins to blink rapidly. Then, press and hold the headset’s power button until it pairs with the dongle. You will know it has paired when both LED lights turn solid.  

How do I charge the Victrix Gambit Wireless Gaming Headset?

How do I tell if my headset is fully charged?  

The LED on the headset will indicate charge status.   

• Pulsing LED = Charging  
• Solid LED = Charged  

How will I know when I need to charge the headset?  

When the headset gets low on battery, you will hear descending tones every minute. This means it’s time to plug it in to charge.  

Is the Victrix Gambit Wireless Gaming Headset also a wired headset?  

Yes. This headset comes with a 3.5mm audio cable with in-line controls that you can use for tournament play or to power the headset when it’s dead. 

How do I connect the headset using the 3.5mm audio cable?  

First, plug in the cable into the headset’s jack (located on the left ear cup under the mic boom). Then, plug the cable into a controller’s 3.5mm audio jack.  

What is 3D Audio on PS5?   

3D Audio on PS5 lets you experience enhanced sound for an immersive experience that helps you react faster than the competition (Note: 3D Audio effects may vary title by title).

How do I adjust the audio on my headset?

• Wireless mode audio controls:  

• You can adjust the audio levels using the dial on the right ear cup

Does the on-ear volume dial work when in wired mode?​

If you use the USB charging cable, does that put the headset in wired mode?   

The charging cable is strictly to charge the headset, the 3.5mm in-line cable is the only thing that puts the headset in wired mode. 

Can data be transferred through the USB charging cable?​ 

No, this cable does not transfer any data.  

How do I mute/unmute my mic?
