At the Plantronics Gaming booth, attendees will experience games as they’ve never heard them before with the full range of Plantronics Gaming audio solutions. They will be able to hear the improvements made to the popular GameCom line of headsets that have recently been refreshed. Attendees can also get hands-on with RIG and experience the difference performance audio makes when used with the Sony PlayStation 4 and Microsoft Xbox One gaming and entertainment systems.
