Creative has decided to use IFA 2011 as the perfect platform for launching four new gaming headsets, which means that one of the Creative Soundblaster quartet is bound to tickle your gaming fancy.

All of the headsets come with bold new designs and compelling audio technologies for all  your favourite platforms, including Mac, PC and console.

First up is the Sound Blaster Tactic360 Sigma Gaming Headset. Designed for Xbox 360, this pair of gaming cans features a sturdy steel core headband design with powerful 50mm audio drivers. It also has a powered headset amplifier with separate voice and game audio controls.

The Sound Blaster Tactic360 ION are also Xbox compatible and come with separate voice and game audio controls, but only gets 40mm drivers. However, its durable, lightweight design should suit some. They'll cost €49.99.

Moving onto the Mac/PC end of things; the Sound Blaster Tactic3D Wrath Wireless Special Edition Gaming Headset (giving it the full title) get massive 50mm drivers and a "killer" design featuring red illuminated ear cups.

The included software enables users to dramatically improve their audio playback quality and experience with THX TruStudio Pro. Engineered for professional-grade gaming, the Sound Blaster Tactic3D Wrath features a steel-core headband, plush ear cups, rechargeable lithium battery, and a detachable microphone.

Last but not least we have the wireless Sound Blaster Tactic3D Omega, which act as a jack of all trades being compatible with PC, Mac, Xbox and PS3. With FullSpectrum 50mm drivers they should deliver a heck of a kick, whilst a detachable noise-cancelling microphone will bring crystal-clear voice communications.

With the included software, PC and Mac gamers can experience THX TruStudio Pro audio technology to customise their own gaming audio settings and profile.

Creative promises more info on pricing and availability in the "coming weeks".
