OR Sony is celebrating the 30th anniversary of the PlayStation this year and is releasing limited edition consoles and accessories to mark the occasion.
These include the digital version of the PlayStation 5, the new PlayStation 5 Pro, the DualSense and DualSense Edge controllers and the PlayStation Portal.
All of these devices feature a gray color reminiscent of the original PlayStation model released on December 3, 1994. The consoles have a lighter gray exterior panel and a darker gray interior body with the original four-color PlayStation logo on the side. There’s also a special 30th anniversary logo on the back and embossed as a subtle repeating pattern on the inner side of the outer panels.
Both the PS5 digital and PS5 Pro come with their respective accessories. The standard DualSense controller also features the gray color scheme, the four-color PlayStation logo and the embossed 30th anniversary logo pattern. A special USB-C cable is included that has a thick connection point like the old PlayStation controller cable had. The base is also color matched.
Sony also includes rubber cable ties in the shape of PlayStation icons, a PlayStation sticker, a PlayStation clip and a poster in one of 30 possible designs. Since both consoles are digital, they also include a matching color plate for the optional disc drive if you choose to purchase one. PlayStation Portal also gets the limited edition look and colors.
Sony sells the consoles in bundles. The PS5 Pro bundle includes the console with a matching DualSense and DualSense Pro controller, a DualSense Charging Station and the aforementioned accessories. It will be available in limited quantities of 12300 units with each unit having its number printed on the side.
The PS5 bundle includes the digital version of the console along with a single DualSense controller and the aforementioned accessories.
PlayStation Portal Limited Edition will be sold separately. You can also buy the Limited Edition version of the DualSense Edge, which also comes with a matching case, and the standard DualSense.
The limited edition products will be available for pre-order from September 26th from direct.playstation.com and participating retailers, in addition to the basic PS5 digital edition, which will be available at participating retailers from October 10th. All bundles will be available for sale on November 21st and, as of now, no price has been announced.
