Sony has pulled the curtain back on a midnight black version of its Pulse 3D wireless headset. The new color matches perfectly with the black DualSense controller<\/a> the company announced in May. Does this mean Sony is inching closer to announcing an\u00a0all-black PlayStation 5? It probably won’t happen anytime soon, but this is another\u00a0step towards the dark side.\u00a0<\/p>\n

As you can see in the trailer below, it is indeed a black version of the PS5\u2019s proprietary headset. There are no differences in functionality; it still outputs 3D audio, features noise-canceling microphones, and runs on a rechargeable battery. It just collects dirt and grime less obviously. It hits stores on October 22, and you can pre-order it now<\/a> for $99.99.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

In other PlayStation 5 news, a big firmware update hits today that enables internal storage expansion. It also improves visibility when it comes to displaying whether or not you\u2019re playing the PS5 or PS4 version of a game, among other tweaks. You can read all about it here<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Will you be picking up a black Pulse 3D headset? How long do you think it will be until we get an all-black PlayStation 5? Let us know in the comments!<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n
