This is what we currently know about headsets for next-gen consoles:

•The PS4 comes packaged with its own headset.
•The PS4's headset jack is standard, so you can use anything for it, new or old.
•The Xbox One has its own branded headset that does *not* come packaged with the console.
•The Xbox One's jack is proprietary, meaning you'll have to use their headsets, though of course other third parties (like these from Turtle Beach) are developing lines specific to fit that.

Microsoft is working on an adapter so that you can connect your current headsets to the Xbox One.:

The Wireless Controller has been redesigned to allow for higher data transfer speed between the controller and the console. This also required creating a new expansion port design for headsets and future controller add-on devices which is different from a standard audio plug input. Xbox plans to develop solutions in the near future to allow consumers to connect many brands of wired gaming headsets to the Wireless Controller for gaming and chat audio.~Microsoft
