On board. Midnight Mass and Haunting of Hill House are S Tier.

SteelSeries dropped a refresh of the Arctis Nova 7. 👀
This refresh makes a good headset even better, with a battery life boost and compatibilty with the Arctis companion app to easily swap audio profiles on the go.
Big thanks to @steelseries.com for sending one my way!
