PlayStation just made an unexpected gaming acquisition

Sony Interactive Entertainment has just expanded its PlayStation brand.

Sony Interactive Entertainment is one of the biggest technology and entertainment companies on the planet and is always looking for ways to expand into new business ventures.

Other than creating consoles, video games, movies and TV series, Sony is also known for its quality brand of audio devices, especially when it comes to top-tier headphones, earbuds, as well as many other forms of technology.

As reported by zeebiz.com, not content with its current back catalogue of high-end products, Sony Interactive Entertainment, has recently acquired a renowned audio technology brand of gaming headphones, namely California-based Audeze, bringing them into the PlayStation ecosystem.

“Audeze is a premier brand for headphones, and this acquisition highlights Sony Interactive's focus on innovation and providing the best audio experience to PlayStation players,” said Hideaki Nishino, senior vice president of platform experience at Sony Interactive Entertainment.

“We're excited to bring Audeze's expertise into the PlayStation ecosystem, building on the great strides we've made with PlayStation 5's Tempest 3D AudioTech and the Pulse 3D wireless headset,” added Nishino.

Sankar Thiagasamudram, CEO at Audeze said: “Sony Interactive provides Audeze with a unique opportunity to scale our business, as we continue with our mission to deliver best-in-class headphones to recording professionals, audiophiles, and gamers. We're also looking forward to contributing to Sony Interactive's efforts to take PlayStation audio experiences to the next level.”

In related news, Sony PlayStation recently revealed its specification and pricing details for its upcoming handheld device, the PlayStation Portal as well as two pieces of new audio hardware, the Pulse Elite and Pulse Explore. However, the price of Sony’s new handheld device has already divided fans.

The PlayStation Portal, Pulse Elite, and Pulse Explore do not yet have release dates, but they are scheduled to launch later this year. Pre-orders are expected to go live very soon.
