TURTLE BEACH STEALTH 700 GEN 2

While cooling gel-infused memory foam ear cushions should always be top of any wishlist, Turtle Beach’s latest flagship wireless headset is an impressive audio powerhouse with virtual surround sound. Even better is the fact that the promised 20 hours of battery life is no lie and there’s no need for an easily loseable USB dongle as it connects directly to the Series X. £129.99, uk.turtlebeach.com

SEAGATE STORAGE EXPANSION CARD FOR XBOX SERIES X/S

Unlike Sony, Microsoft has opted for a proprietary solution for upgrades to that precious 1TB of SSD storage. Seagate’s 1TB plug-in card fully supports the Series X and S’s Velocity Architecture, meaning there’ll be no recognisable difference between games you load up from internal or the additional storage option. You can even hot swap between cards if you’re particularly flush with games and cash. £219.99, microsoft.com

YAMAHA V4A AV RECEIVER

Even AV receivers are having to up their literal game for the new generation. Yamaha’s latest 5.1 offering comes with four HDMI 2.1 connections for multiple next-gen consoles and supports 4K at 120Hz, as well as that oh-so-vital Auto Low Latency Mode or ALLM. The V4A also boasts Dolby Vision and HDR10+ passthrough as well standard HDR functionality. You needed an upgrade anyway, right?

XBOX ELITE WIRELESS CONTROLLER SERIES 2

There are no extra bells and whistles on the Xbox Series X controller so if you’ve got very specific thumbstick desires, you’ll want the sequel to Microsoft’s Elite pad. Whether you want to switch up paddles or twiddle with analogue tension, this is a perfect, if expensive, accessory. There’s even wireless charging via the included dock because, let’s face it, wires are so last generation.
