TURTLE BEACH DEBUTS NEW OFFICIALLY LICENSED FOR NINTENDO SWITCH 2 AIRLITE FIT WIRED GAMING HEADSET

 

Previously Introduced as Officially Licensed for Nintendo Switch, the New Officially Licensed for Nintendo Switch 2 Model Delivers the Same Lightweight and Comfortable Gaming Audio Experience, now with Official Nintendo Switch 2 Designs and a Charcoal Colorway

 

San Diego, CA – August 8, 2025 – Leading gaming accessories maker Turtle Beach Corporation (Nasdaq: TBCH) today announced a new Turtle Beach® Airlite Fit™ wired gaming headset that’s officially licensed for Nintendo Switch™ 2. Prior to Turtle Beach’s 2024 acquisition of Performance Designed Products (PDP), the original Airlite headset was a top-3 best-selling headset for Nintendo Switch systems under PDP(1). Turtle Beach reintroduced the officially licensed for Nintendo Switch Airlite Fit earlier this year as an updated over-ear model available in Neon Blue & Red, White & Black, or Ghost Purple. The new, officially licensed for Nintendo Switch 2 Airlite Fit delivers the same lightweight comfort and immersive gaming audio the series is known for. It now features an official Nintendo Switch 2 design and comes in a new Charcoal Black colorway.

 

The new, officially licensed Turtle Beach Airlite Fit wired gaming headset for Nintendo Switch 2 in Charcoal Black is available for pre-order today for $27.99/£19.99/€24.99 and launches at participating retailers worldwide on Wednesday, September 3, 2025.

 

“Working with our partners at Nintendo, we are excited to release our latest Airlite Fit headset for a lightweight and comfortable gaming experience, licensed for Nintendo Switch 2,” said Cris Keirn, CEO, Turtle Beach Corporation. “With proven, excellent audio performance at an affordable price, the Airlite Fit enhances the amazing experiences on Nintendo Switch 2 for gamers everywhere.”

 

While all models of the Turtle Beach Airlite Fit wired gaming headset are compatible with the Nintendo Switch 2 and prior Nintendo Switch systems, this newer Airlite Fit model comes in officially licensed for Nintendo Switch 2 packaging, shows the official Nintendo Switch 2 badge on the headset’s headband, and adds a new Charcoal Black colorway to what was previously available.

 

Enjoy a superior level of gaming and comfort with the new Turtle Beach Airlite Fit wired gaming headset for Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch systems. Officially licensed and expertly designed in-house, this headset delivers finely tuned audio through high-quality 40mm speakers, providing an immersive experience for both casual and competitive gamers alike. The elevated over-ear jersey[MW1] [MM2] [BB3]  knit cushions offer exceptional comfort, letting gamers hear every crisp high and deep low while effectively blocking out external noise. The sleek, noise-canceling microphone ensures voice chat is heard clearly and can be flipped up to mute it. The versatile 3.5mm audio connection is fully compatible across all Nintendo Switch systems.
