The Victoria brand made in the recent past in eSports name. Arcade sticks found favor in the fighting game community, a long-time shooter players are I liked some teams in the eye especially headset sponsorship. In addition to the higher-priced Pro Series is now available with the Gambit's products provide a low-cost alternative for beginners ready their strengths I primarily as it should in the history be otherwise, reroute in multiplayer titles.
processing and comfort
At first glance, the Victoria headset sound works constructed. Sure, we have to take in this price range primarily with plastic Earlier, rickety, but it does not feel so.
In addition, the design of the Gambit Wireless for a gaming headset is very discreet. The entire housing is held in plain black, one RGB lighting was not installed. Leatherette upholstery convey value, even the headband was equipped with it.
Especially the foam in the ear cushions ensure a comfortable fit, I wear glasses could use the headset for long hours feeling of pressure. The pressure also falls right out low, which is why the headset buyers inside should have no difficulty with larger head.

System Compatibility
Since I mostly play multiplayer titles on the Xbox, I tested the version for Microsoft's systems. The respective headset models for Xbox and PlayStation can be exclusively on the platforms wirelessly use for which they were designed.
The headset is also at a plug cable, with which you can easily use on a PC, a smartphone and all current controllers, the Gambit headset. However, the cable connection disables the volume control on the sides.
With a wireless use, the headset connects via a radio link with a USB adapter, Bluetooth does not control the Victoria Gambit Wireless. The simultaneous use of two devices is not possible — when connecting the jack cable wireless source is deactivated.
Facility
The connection to the Xbox proved easily, contrary to the accompanying instructions, I did not have to be coupled together headphones and the transmitter. Fortunately, because the synchronization button was hidden in such a narrow hole that I could not reach even with the wire of a paper clip.
Dolby Atmos is part of the package, but only on the Xbox: Victoria provides a lifetime license for Dolby Atmos for Headphone with, you've got to download only the Dolby Access app from the store, activate the headset in the app set Dolby Atmos in the system menu as output. On the PlayStation support falls away, but Sony's own jumps, Free 3D audio format into the breach.
sound while playing
The circumaural headphones offered the best sound experience in games. Especially in the multiplayer modes of Gears 5, Halo I put 2 Anniversary and split gates quickly discovered was what the attention of engineers Victoria: signaling sounds that require a response of the player, so shots, steps, or the impact of a grenade. It could be any time hear clear where enemies are located, thanks to Dolby Atmos also in height. Distances also did an excellent judge.
In quiet games with a few brutal scenes and subtle background music, such as Alan Wake Remastered or The Ascent, I also had fun with the headset. Bass popping neatly in, the sound but not dominate. Rotates the acoustics of the game on, however, it is clear that the headset many middles very quietly reflects and absorbs almost all heights.
Do you play a lot of multiplayer games, this is a very good aspect, since game-relevant tones highlighted and all other details will be provided in the background? Cinema Similar experiences can not develop entirely depending on their acoustic design.
Sound: Multiplayer Single Player
No real tournament suitability: An enclosed design to shield headphones better, but the insulation if Victoria Gambit Wireless falls from relatively lax. Voices from the neighboring apartment, I could still hear clearly, I can from my own experience is difficult to imagine, therefore, that the noise of a real tournament environment is effectively blocked.
sound with multimedia use
Movies and music bring the weaknesses of the headset is clear. For the test, I looked at the most spectacular scenes in Mad Max: Fury Road picked out, Blade Runner in 2049 and 1917 and the audio tracks in Dolby Atmos or DTS: X can be converted by the associated apps. The Victoria headset can not establish a space in all test scenarios Highlights lacking massively pressure and volume.
The situation is similar to listening to music. A variety of genres from Metal core to Dream Pop fired the headset in the direction of my entrance to the ear, with DTS Headphone: X turned on the positioning of the instruments but difficult to assign.
Deactivation of the room sound simulation ensured both the film examples and the listening of music for improvement, it seems that the headset fine nuances in a wide frequency spectrum can not work out really well.
Microphone
In wireless transmission to the Xbox and the PC I was clearly understandable, but its own voice loses greatly. Unfortunately a little more than competing headsets, which is why I would most likely place the microphone of the Victoria Gambit Wireless in midfield. VICTORIA also advertises with the filtering of background noise, which did in fact great, rarely the clack of my controller or a mouse click the language chat.
So that you get a better impression of the recording quality, I have an example of you here:
DISRESPECT · VICTORIA GAMBIT Wireless Microphone Test
In combination with the danseuse controller, however, it fell on that the microphone overrides a little at wired operation. Therefore, only falls back in exceptional cases.
Radio range and battery life
Since it is a conventional radio connection, it is quickly unstable when leaving the room. Although in my old building apartment, I was able to move freely in the adjacent corridor and on the balcony, but when entering another room, the connection broke off.
The beep at the loss of the compound was very shrill and loud, as well as all other beeps of the headset. If you are very sensitive to react to high noises, the VICTORIA Gambit recommends only limited.
Whole 18 hours you can use the headset wirelessly, it took about three and a half hours to completely recharge it. However, the remaining battery charge is not informed but only a loud beep indicates that the battery is empty in a few minutes.

Chris Median @Drchrisrespect
The Victoria Gambit Gaming Headset is recommended if you primarily play multiplayer. I liked the sound profile very well, the location of important noises worked perfectly. In the multimedia use, however, the competition has the nose.
I also do a bit heavy with the closed design, as it takes the sound backlash the space, but simultaneously seals. For tournaments, contrary to the self-imposed advertising message is not suitable. Maybe it also fits for the time spirit, offline events have rarely held since the beginning of the Corona pandemic.
So the VICTORIA Gambit wireless highlights very special strengths, but if you are looking for versatility, the headset is more unsuitable for you. However, you count to the target group, then you get a solidly processed entry-level model with a long battery life for little money, which can also be comfortably carried during pierced nights.
