Last year, PlayStation announced the Pulse Elevate wireless speakers, adding them to a line of products that consists primarily of headsets, plus a pair of TWS buds. At the time, the Sony videogames subsidiary only announced that it will be available sometime in 2026, without a specific release date. That has changed, as the company has revealed not only what they cost, but also when it will be available, as well as when pre-orders for them open.
In case you missed it, the PlayStation Pulse Elevate speakers boast the company’s PlayStation Link, which is essentially 2.4 GHz wireless tech via a USB dongle. There’s the Bluetooth option as well, allowing its use with smartphones and serving as an additional option for computers, be they Windows or macOS systems. There’s also multi-device connectivity, letting the speakers work with both connection methods at the same time.
Inside each of the Pulse Elevate speakers are a planar magnetic driver and a woofer. This allows the speakers to deliver what Sony Interactive Entertainment claims to be “lifelike desktop audio”. There’s also a microphone built into the right speaker, which is aided by AI-enhanced noise rejection, for your multiplayer voice communications needs. Though for the most part, this should not be necessary, as the DualSense controller, or indeed the PlayStation Portal, already has one, and those would usually be closer to you than the speakers.
Because the Pulse Elevate speakers are made to be completely wireless , they are battery-powered, with a rated 12-hour battery life. Charging is therefore done via the included charging docks. They are also designed so that they can be tilted back, if that’s the way you prefer them to be placed.
The PlayStation Pulse Elevate wireless speakers are priced at RM1,099, though they will not be available immediately. Pre-orders open on 2 September, and you will be able to place yours at local retailers. But it won’t be until 12 November that you can find them on shelves.
