Gaming experience and MIC

For testing the headset, let's talk through a handful of games:

PUBG

Our test could not miss one of the hottest titles of recent years. In many situations, this famous battle royale game requires patience and capturing audio details that can reveal, e.g., if another player is in the same building as you. So, the spatial aspect of the sound is essential, making it easier to determine the direction from which the opponent is coming and even how far away they are. The test consisted of playing a single match in solo mode. The Corsair HS65 Wireless works good in PUBG.

Battlefield

Here, the sound becomes just an addition for us, partly because we cannot even feel the headphones on our heads because of their lightness. The advantage of this is that you can focus on the game better. Everything seems to be correct. The headset does a very good job of presenting environmental detail. Positioning is good here, giving us a complete sense of orientation in the field and determining where the sound comes from. Clarity was also very decent.

Call of Duty: WW2

Sound-wise, it’s like it should be. Here, positioning is at more than a medium level – we can locate sounds from any direction (including up and down) without any problems. In short, determining changes in the distance from the sound source was easy for me. 

Project Cars 3

It was great to use this headset here. Racing games are very entertaining and also dependent on the quality of the sound. Bass reproduction was crucial here, and the HS65 Wireless didn’t disappoint, thanks to 50 mm neodymium audio drivers. 

DiRT Rally 2.0

Rally cars at their finest. DiRT Rally is a very demanding simulation (maybe not as much as Richard Burns Rally, but not that far off). The sound is relatively realistic, and you can almost feel the engine’s roar and grind of the transmission. The HS65 Wireless did very well in DiRT Rally 2.0, so you won’t miss any essential sounds.

Grand Theft Auto V

GTA 5 is diverse; some funky tunes can benefit from the headset’s rich bass reproduction. The two 50 mm neodymium drivers make a difference in this game, as there’s no lack of bass, which is crucial here. You can almost feel like you’re really in Ludendorff or Paleto Bay.

Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey

All ambient sounds are reproduced in a good manner. The stage is sufficient for this game. Weapon strikes sound realistic. 

Forza Horizon 5

This is an excellent open-world racing game. Not a simulator, but it brings a lot of fun. The sound of engines (not only yours) is easily distinguished, but the positioning is also very accurate. It can make a difference here.
