Competitive professional gamers like to remain focused during competition, but noise can be a big distraction. To address these needs of professional gamers, world’s number three notebook manufacturer ASUSTeK Computer has released the ROG Vulcan ANC, the world’s first active-noise-cancelling pro gaming headset. According to the maker, it is designed to immerse users into games and keep them free of distractions like never before.

Created from the needs of competitive pro gamers to remain focused during competition, the ROG team forged the Vulcan ANC with both performance and comfort in mind, said ASUSTeK. The Vulcan ANC features 85 percent active noise cancellation to filter out sounds like low frequency computer fan noise and 30 dB passive noise cancellation to reduce a wide range of ambient noises, including background voices, according to ASUSTeK.

ASUSTeK said that the Vulcan ANC not only provides gamers an immersive gaming experience with noise cancelling features, but also a comfortable one. It offers long lasting comfort with lightweight, and ergonomic design, the maker said.

The lightweight design of 320 g is lighter than other comparable models of the same size, with other headsets weighing around 350 g according to ASUSTeK. Soft memory foam encased in breathable Japanese protein leather ensures user comfort even after extended gaming sessions. It is also portable, with a foldable design that easily fits into a durable touring case to take between competitions or LAN parties, stated ASUSTeK.

Offering crystal clear audio with noise-filtering microphone, the Vulcan ANC is built with enlarged 40 mm headphone drivers for crisp, clear audio. The manufacturer said that the company’s audio experts optimized the headset for a wide sound stage so audio is balanced with both thundering bass and brilliant mids and highs. A stylish blade-shaped detachable boom microphone has built-in noise filtering technology so teammates hear clear conversations during games instead of ambient noise, concluded ASUSTeK.
