PlayStation 5 owners can now finally get going to get a set of official reskins for this next gen console, with five new colors coming next month.
Anybody keeping an eye on the battle between Sony and Canadian accessory manufacturer Dbrand might be entirely unsurprised to find that now the Japanese console giant is done throwing around the threat of litigation, they have announced a range of new colored covers for the PlayStation 5 console. Revealed as a part of a PlayStation blog post earlier today, the new covers will come in 5 shades, and are interchangeable, allowing consumers to modify their existing gaming environment.
Midnight Black and Cosmic Red PS5 console covers will become available starting on 21 January 2022 at participating retailers in the following locations: USA, Canada, UK, France, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam, Korea, and the Philippines. The remaining variations, including the Nova Pink, Galactic Purple, and Starlight Blue are set to land in the same locations across the first half of 2022. Sony also released a teaser video because it’s always good to know how pink my Playstation is about to get.
In an effort to match the new snap on covers, Sony also confirmed that Nova Pink, Starlight Blue, and Galactic Purple Dualsense wireless controllers will also hit stores in January 2022, ensuring that you can color coordinate. Now I just need to repaint the front room to match the expense. We don’t have a cost for the faceplates quite yet, but the new Dualsense controllers will cost £59.99 or local equivalent from PlayStation Direct, as of 14 January. You can find out all the details and get a closer look at the plastic fantastic over at the official PlayStation blog now.
