## Summary

Sony has confirmed that its Pulse Elevate desktop gaming speakers will begin shipping on 12 November, priced at $220, with pre-orders opening on 1 September via PlayStation Direct and third-party retailers — nearly a year after the product was first unveiled. The launch completes the rollout of the latest addition to Sony's PlayStation audio accessory lineup, giving PS5 owners a dedicated desktop speaker option to sit alongside its existing headset range, and the units will be sold in white and Midnight (black) finishes to match other PlayStation hardware.

The speakers use planar magnetic drivers, which Sony says deliver near-perfect sound accuracy across the audible spectrum, along with woofers and a noise-suppressing microphone. They support Tempest 3D AudioTech spatial audio and low-latency PlayStation Link connectivity via a bundled USB-C adaptor, and can connect to a PS5, PlayStation Portal, PC or Mac, or function as tiltable Bluetooth speakers with multipoint pairing; settings can be customised through a PS5 or PC. Sony has not disclosed full technical specifications or exact battery life, saying only that the speakers will play audio for "hours" on a charge.
