NACON revealed their highly anticipated RIG 800 PRO is now shipping and can be purchased at Best Buy, Target, GameStop, Amazon and Walmart.

The headset, which is their new top of the line, boasts a number of solid features, with the most notable being a charging dock. Taking a page from Astro’s popular A50 wireless headset, the RIG 800 PRO can be placed inside the dock to charge it between play sessions, in addition to housing the dongle needed to connect to a console.

In addition to wireless functionality and charging dock, RIG 800 PRO also boasts the following features:

Charge anywhere: The new multifunction base station that allows you to conveniently dock and charge your headset.

Unleash 3D audio: AccessDolby Atmos® for Headphones instantly when you connect the wireless adapter or base station to your Xbox®.

Long battery life: Similar to its predecessor, the RIG 800 PRO has up to 24-hours, lag-free wireless audio with secure connection to your console.

Wireless excellence: Up to 30 ft / 10m of wireless range with a dedicated 2.4GHZ radio frequency.

Premium audio: 40mm, high-sensitivity drivers with low frequency resonators that reinforce base and reduce distortion.

RIG signature style and comfort: The RIG 800 PRO features RIG signature self-adjusting head strap with small, medium or large sizing allowing for the perfect fit every time, and a flexible, durable headset frame that is virtually unbreakable.

A fan favorite feature: Noise-canceling mic with flip-to-mute function for focused gameplay.

On headset controls: On-ear volume, game/chat balance and mic monitoring controls.

StayFocused: Sound-isolating ear cups block noise and keep you focused.

To go along with the announcement, NACON Head of Development for RIG, Jack Reynolds, had the following to say:
