In addition to this latest accolade from MCV UK, last week Turtle Beach announced its 2016 market share, which continues showing the company’s dominance in the space with 42% of the console gaming headset market in the U.S. per the latest NPD data, making Turtle Beach the market share leader in this space for the past seven years running.
“It’s an astonishing achievement to win this honor from MCV and the industry for a fourth time in a row and fifth time overall, and we’re extremely grateful,” said Juergen Stark, CEO, Turtle Beach Corporation. “We’ve had an extremely productive 2016 with the launch of our acclaimed ELITE PRO line of eSports-focused products, and we continue to develop and innovate in all aspects of gaming audio to deliver products with features gamers want.
