Sony Interactive Entertainment, Sony’s PlayStation division, has confirmed the acquisition of Audeze. Audeze is known for its premium headphones. Now Audeze will help PlayStation innovate the audio experience of PlayStation games.
Sony also confirmed that Audeze will continue to operate independently and launch products as usual. Audeze offers gaming headphones, music headphones, speakerphones, reference headphones, and in-ear monitors for music production.
“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, 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.”
The deal will also give Audeze a wider reach.
“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,” said Sankar Thiagasamudram, CEO at Audeze. “We’re also looking forward to contributing to Sony Interactive’s efforts to take PlayStation audio experiences to the next level.”
Terms of deals were not disclosed. So, we don’t know how much Sony spent to acquire Audeze.
