This list represents my thoughts and opinions on the best audio gear for hearing footsteps on First-Person Shooter (FPS) video games as of the end of 2023. This is only a matter of opinion and personal preference, not an absolute matter of fact. It also does not mean that headsets, headphones, or IEMs not shown in this video are bad. There are many great options out there! I created this to serve as a general guide for what to look for, and why I like different models for their own unique features, pros, or even their flaws.
