Xbox One will accept current-gen hi-end gaming headsets
The confirmation comes via Microsoft lead planner for Xbox One Albert Penello, who responded to queries via Twitter.
Asked whether an adapter will be available for "current gen hi-end gaming headsets to work on the Xbox One," Penello answered in the affirmatiive.
"Yes. We will have an adapter that allows current gaming headsets to work."
Penello also confirmed the adapter will not be bundled with the console, but will be an accessory sold separately.
Reports from May suggested that Xbox One's proprietary data port would not be compatible with current-gen headsets.
At the time, a Microsoft spokesperson said the company would share details on how third party peripherals will work in the future.
"We are working with 3rd party headset manufacturers to create new headsets that will take full advantage of the Xbox One technology," the rep said.
Penello also confirmed overnight that Microsoft is "looking into" bundling headsets with the Xbox One.

Bing Rewards Microsoft Points Have a Expiration Date?
The new Beta program has converted all Microsoft Points into Dollars. Apparently a new update is that the "promotional credits" have a 1 year expiration date as well. You can check the expiration date by signing into your account HERE. Some people have reported the points expiring after 1 week, so it is a good idea to double check your credit.
What is the difference between promotional and non-promotional balances?
From time to time and for marketing purposes, Microsoft may offer promotions that you can redeem to your Microsoft account, which add promotional balance to your account. A promotional gift card may require that you redeem the value listed on the card, or use any redeemed balance, by a certain date or within a certain time period. Please refer to any terms and conditions associated with the promotion in question for specific details or restrictions.Any balance in your Microsoft account that has not been designated as promotional will not expire. However, if you do not use your account balance for a prolonged period of time, the law may require us to consider your account balance abandoned. In that case, and in some countries where the law requires it, we may be obligated to transfer any non-promotional balance in your account to the appropriate government authority and you will have to retrieve your funds from the relevant authority. We will try to reach you and give you adequate notice before transferring your account balance.
When using your account balance to make a purchase at a participating Microsoft store, Microsoft automatically uses any promotional value in your account balance before any other value stored in your account, and does so in the order of the promotional value scheduled to expire first.

Black Ops 2 DLC: New weapon camo packs 7/23/13
Looks like there’s a selection of new Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 DLC on the way in the shape of more weapon Personalization Packs. The latest Xbox Live Marketplace update from Major Nelson lists six new packs – Aqua, Pack-A-Punch, Rogue, Breach, Desert Coyote, and Glam – each priced 160MSP and scheduled for release next Tuesday, 23 July.
There are already 11 Personalization Packs available, with the nine originals, which include Zombies, Bacon, and Graffiti themes, later joined by Cyborg and Dragon camos following a community vote. The Personalization Packs contain themed weapon camo, reticles, and Calling Card.
We expect the new packs will be available as a timed exclusive first on Xbox Live, before arriving on PlayStation Network at a later date.
