Xbox announced a new wireless headset for the X and S series earlier today, but attentive fans may have actually caught a glimpse of it in a trailer last year.

Xbox media manager Josh Stein confirmed the Easter egg on Tuesday, adding that he was not sure if there were other Easter eggs in the trailer.
The Xbox team is quite fond of hiding the latest hardware and other Easter eggs in videos. During the Game Lab 2020 Keynote Fireside chat, Xbox CEO Phil Spencer spoke in interviews while the Xbox Series X sat on the shelf in the background all the time.
The new wireless headset may not actually transport you to different dimensions, but at $ 99.99 it will work with both Series X, Series S and Xbox One and will provide spatial sound. The headset supports Xbox’s suite of 3D audio systems: Windows Sonic, Dolby Atmos and DTS Headphone: X. If you’re more of a PC player, it’s working there too.
The headset is available from March 16, but you can pre-order it on Amazon or the Microsoft Store now.
