The Cloud II built HyperX’s reputation. The Gaming Headset HyperX Cloud III Wired | PC PS5 PS4 | Black refines everything that made it legendary. New angled 53mm drivers tuned specifically for gaming — not just audio reproduction, but the dynamic sounds of combat, footsteps and environmental cues that separate good gaming headsets from great ones. A full aluminum frame that flexes without breaking. Memory foam in both the headband and ear cushions, wrapped in premium leatherette for multi-hour sessions. A 10mm noise-cancelling microphone with an LED mute indicator so you always know your status. And DTS Headphone:X Spatial Audio activated for life on day one. Three cables — USB-C, USB-A and 3.5mm — mean the Cloud III works on every platform without adapters or compromise.
Audio
53mm Angled Drivers + DTS Spatial
The 53mm neodymium drivers are angled rather than flat-mounted — a deliberate design choice that positions the drivers to better match the natural angle of the ear canal, improving clarity and depth of the soundstage. HyperX engineers tuned these specifically for gaming audio: footsteps, positional cues, environmental sounds and the frequency range most critical in competitive play. DTS Headphone:X Spatial Audio is activated for life via the included code — a virtual 3D soundstage that significantly improves directional accuracy, particularly on PC.
Microphone
10mm Noise-Cancelling · LED Mute
The 10mm microphone is an upgrade over the Cloud II’s mic — larger capsule, built-in mesh filter that physically blocks plosive sounds and background noise, and significantly improved voice clarity. The LED mute indicator on the earcup glows when the mic is muted so there is no ambiguity during calls. The mic detaches cleanly when not needed — useful for music listening, where a dangling mic arm is a nuisance. Onboard earcup controls handle volume and mute without navigating to desktop software or console menus.
Comfort + Build
Aluminum Frame · Memory Foam
The Cloud III uses a full aluminum frame — flexible enough to accommodate head shapes without cracking, rigid enough to survive the drops and compression that headsets routinely experience in gaming setups. Memory foam in both the headband cushion and the ear cups distributes clamping force evenly without creating pressure points over long sessions. Leatherette ear cushions provide passive isolation without fully blocking environmental awareness. Adjustable headband sizing fits a wide range of head sizes without the slipping that affects lighter plastic headsets.
Great choice if you…
✔ Play on PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox, Switch or Mac and need one headset
✔ Want wired stability with no battery or charging to manage
✔ Need a clear detachable mic for multiplayer and calls
✔ Play long sessions and need memory foam comfort that lasts
✔ Want DTS Spatial Audio for better positional awareness on PC
Consider something else if…
✖ You need wireless freedom — see the HyperX Cloud III Wireless
✖ You primarily use a standalone microphone and don’t need a headset mic
✖ You need active noise cancellation (the Cloud III uses passive isolation)
