ARCTIS PRO + GameDACPRODUCT INFORMATION GUIDE
WELCOME TO ARCTIS PRO + GAMEDAC
History showed us that gaming headsets rarely looked good and sounded worse, so we made Arctis and put all other headsets on notice. Next, the audiophiles said that a gaming headset could never stand up to dedicated headphones, so we made Arctis Pro and changed the game.Like you, we are esports pros, pub stars, 5 am raiders, 1hp heroes, streamers, and dreamers. Your Arctis Pro was forged out of our belief that gaming isn’t your way to escape reality, it’s your path to rewrite it.
