SteelSeries has unveiled a striking new version of its Arctis GameBuds in an ultra-limited-edition colourway known as Glorange – a bold fusion of “glory” and “orange” inspired by the brand’s identity. Available starting May 13, 2025, these stylish gaming earbuds are priced at $159.99 in North America and come packed with features designed specifically for modern console and mobile gamers.
The new colourway is not just a visual refresh – it’s paired with cutting-edge technology and thoughtful design, aimed at providing an immersive and seamless gaming experience across nearly every platform.
Known for pushing boundaries in the gaming audio space, SteelSeries has taken its award-winning Arctis Nova headset technology and fitted it into a compact, all-day wearable form factor. The Arctis GameBuds offer console-level performance, including 360° Spatial Audio, Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) with a 4-mic hybrid system, and Transparency Mode for users who want to remain aware of their surroundings.

One of the biggest challenges gamers face with traditional Bluetooth earbuds is compatibility. These GameBuds tackle that head-on with an ultra-low-latency 2.4GHz wireless connection using a new USB-C nano dongle, co-developed through a next-gen chipset partnership. This dongle makes it possible to connect wirelessly to PS5, Xbox, PC, Nintendo Switch, Meta Quest, and handheld/cloud gaming platforms – a major upgrade over standard Bluetooth solutions.
In an industry-first, the Arctis GameBuds are backed by the Mobile Arctis App, which features over 200 game-specific audio presets that can be applied on the fly without interrupting gameplay. Whether you’re playing a competitive shooter on Xbox or a cinematic RPG on PS5, the presets deliver finely tuned sound settings that enhance every detail. Real-time control means users can easily switch between profiles while playing, all from their mobile device. Xbox users will need the GameBuds’ dedicated Xbox version for full compatibility.

Battery life is another standout feature. Each earbud provides up to 10 hours of continuous use, and the case holds three extra full charges, offering more than 40 hours of total playtime. If that’s not enough, a quick 15-minute USB-C charge gives another 3 hours of use. The case also supports Qi wireless charging, adding even more convenience for users on the move.
The ergonomic design is based on over 62,000 ear scans, ensuring a secure and comfortable fit with multiple silicone tips included. Whether it’s a long gaming session, a workout, or a call during a commute, the earbuds are built for extended use. They’re also IP55 water resistant, making them ideal for active lifestyles.

Switching between devices is simple with Quick-Switch Wireless, which lets users toggle between Bluetooth 5.3 and 2.4GHz connections with just a triple-tap on the earbud. This allows seamless swapping between a mobile call and a console gaming session without needing to disconnect or re-pair devices.
The Glorange colourway is more than just eye-catching – it’s a statement. Inspired by the SteelSeries slogan “For Glory” and the brand’s signature orange, Glorange is a vivid mix of red and yellow tones that glow with energy. This edition of the Arctis GameBuds celebrates gaming culture with a fun and fearless design twist.
