Xbox One adapter for Xbox 360 headsets inbound

4.6
Microsoft is working on an adapter allowing you to use Xbox 360 wired headsets with the Xbox One.

The news comes via the Xbox Support Twitter account, responding to a question about whether existing headsets will work with the new console.

“We are working to develop an adapter for current wired headsets to connect. More details as we approach launch,” a representative said.

The Xbox One will not come bundled with a headset, because the Kinect, which is included in every package and required for the console to function, will perform basic voice chat duties. There is an official headset, though.

Both Mad Catz and Turtle Beach have said they’ll be developing peripherals for the new console as well.

That's cool, now I don't have to buy a new one with the new console. I wonder how much it will cost though.

Well great, I can't wait to get into matches with little kids with kinect mics now! As if it wasn't bad enough already


So much truth. Then again, you have to remember that little kids are not meant to be playing games such as call of duty.
