Sony shows off PS5 console covers, new DualSense controller colors

To celebrate a year of the PS5 being available worldwide, Sony has finally announced some official new console cover replacement colors and a number of matching additional DualSense Wireless Controller variations as well.

The stylish new replacement console covers will set you back $54.99 and come in Midnight Black, Cosmic Red, Nova Pink, Starlight Blue and Galactic Purple colors, with new matching controller colors for the latter trio as you can see in the product shots and announcement videos. That’s the good new!

The bad news is that the new console covers and DualSense colors will not be made available until January 21st, 2022 at the earliest (totally issing the Holiday shopping season), and even then only Midnight Black and Cosmic Red will be among the first batch.  Other colors and regions will roll out slowly during 2022 as is detailed on the PS Blog here.

Those interested in getting their hands on the new products ASAP can pre-order them directly from PlayStation Direct very soon right here: https://direct.playstation.com/en-us/coming-soon?emcid=or-ps-428777
