The New Xbox Headset Was Actually Revealed In October And No One Noticed Microsoft actually showed off the headset months ago and we all missed it. The new $99 Xbox headset that Microsoft announced this week was actually first revealed to the world back in October 2020--and seemingly no one noticed. The Xbox Series X's Power Your Dreams launch trailer--which debuted on October 9--featured Get Out star Daniel Kaluuya wearing the headset. After Microsoft announced the new headset, a Twitter user noticed this and posted about it on social media. Microsoft responded, "We don't always hide things in plain sight... but when we do: it's awesome hardware."
