Next-gen gear: what you need to get the most out of your PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X

You've got your PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X - but what else do you need to experience the future of gaming? Here are the TVs and headsets we recommend

This month we welcomed a new video game generation with the thrilling (if rather limited) arrival of the Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 machines.
