CAN YOU USE A MOUSE AND KEYBOARD ON PS5?

Written by Bibby // published 8th April 2026

Today we’re doing something a bit different. We're taking the Turtle Beach KONE XP Air and Turtle Beach Vulcan 2 keyboard and throwing them straight onto a PlayStation 5 to see how they actually perform.

 

We like to push the boundaries of tech, so you don't have to open YOUR wallet. We give real gameplay, real reactions, and consider whether these two bits of kit actually make sense in a console setup. What We’re Testing: 

 

  • How the KONE XP Air handles PS5 gameplay
  • Whether the Vulcan 2 keyboard feels responsive on console
  • Latency, comfort, and overall playability
  • If mouse & keyboard on PS5 is actually worth the hassle
