Corsair Unveils VIRTUOSO Open Back Graphene Driver Headphones

CORSAIR® (NASDAQ:CRSR), a world leader in high-performance gear for gamers and content creators, today launched a new addition to its illustrious VIRTUOSO headset line: the VIRTUOSO PRO open back streaming/gaming headset. Boasting state-of-the-art graphene driver technology and a striking open back design, VIRTUOSO PRO delivers true-to-life audio that rivals studio-grade headphones. Whether you’re streaming, gaming, creating, or all three at once, you can hear what matters most with VIRTUOSO PRO.

VIRTUOSO PRO is tailor-made for streamers and gamers alike. Its airy open back ear cups create a natural, spacious sound stage, giving your games and media new dimension and realism. You’re also tuned-in to your environment – you can speak and interact while wearing the headset just as you would normally. With VIRTUOSO PRO, streaming and content creation is more natural than ever.

VIRTUOSO PRO produces sensational sound with 50mm graphene drivers, an emergent technology that revolutionizes headset performance. Stiffer than typical drivers, graphene virtually eliminates distortion and delivers radically rich, detailed acoustics with stunning precision. Through the power of graphene, VIRTUOSO PRO’s audio drivers reveal layers of details in games and media that previously went undetected.

Airflow through the ear cups ensures your ears stay cool through even the longest streaming sessions and playthroughs. The headband that rests easy on your head and plush memory foam ear pads make long-form listening uncommonly comfortable.

VIRTUOSO PRO works seamlessly with Elgato Wave Link software for mixing, balancing, and orchestrating multiple audio sources at once. Wave Link also accesses NVIDIA® Broadcast for advanced background noise and echo reduction, as well as a host of VSTs that liven up your streams and content, so live productions are always pitch-perfect.

Broadcast yourself brilliantly on the detachable uni-directional microphone with noise cancellation. Alternatively, you can simply remove the microphone boom to use an XLR or USB mic instead, making VIRTUOSO PRO ideal for any pro setup.

With cutting-edge graphene drivers and a spacious open back design that’s perfect for interacting on-camera, VIRTUOSO PRO sets the stage for your greatest streaming and gaming moments.

Availability, Warranty, and Pricing

The CORSAIR VIRTUOSO PRO streaming/gaming headset is available immediately from the CORSAIR webstore and the CORSAIR worldwide network of authorized retailers and distributors.

The CORSAIR VIRTUOSO PRO streaming/gaming headset is backed by a two-year warranty, alongside the CORSAIR worldwide customer service and technical support network.

Resident Evil 4 Separate Ways DLC Announced

Today, Capcom revealed Separate Ways, a new story DLC for Resident Evil™ 4 that is emerging from the shadows on Sept. 21, 2023. Separate Ways explores another side of the reawakened tale, following Ada Wong on a clandestine mission that reunites the agent with Leon S. Kennedy during his search for the president’s missing daughter. Alongside the release of Separate Ways, a free update for The Mercenaries will go live the same day, introducing Ada Wong and her notorious employer Albert Wesker as playable characters for the popular bonus mode.

The new trailer also debuted thrilling footage of Resident Evil 4 VR Mode. This immersive new way to experience the main campaign of Resident Evil 4 is coming to PlayStation®VR2 as free DLC this winter. Resident Evil 4 VR Mode brings the action closer than ever before and dials up the intensity with intuitive PlayStation VR2 Sense™ controls that include dual wielding, realistic weapon handling, enhanced knife action, and more.

In Separate Ways, Ada Wong travels to a lonely and rural part of Europe to infiltrate a village controlled by the religious group known as Los Iluminados. Under orders from Albert Wesker, Ada is assigned to obtain the cult’s darkest secret: a mysterious material known as “the Amber.” Her operation intertwines with Leon S. Kennedy’s search for the president’s missing daughter, providing an alternate perspective on the main story that uncovers events that unfold behind the scenes.

Alongside the highly acclaimed gunplay, combat, and knife mechanics of Resident Evil 4, Separate Ways introduces an additional feature to the experience that takes the fast-paced action to exciting new heights. For this exhilarating mission, Ada is armed with a Grappling Gun that can be used to swing across chasms, make rapid ascents, and plunge into the depths below. She can also wield the device in combat to take on enemies in close quarters and launch into melee takedowns from a distance.

Separate Ways will be available for $9.99 USD as a downloadable add-on for Resident Evil 4 on Sept. 21 across PlayStation®5, PlayStation®4, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam. Resident Evil 4 VR Mode is planned for release this winter as free DLC exclusively for PlayStation VR2.
