PlayStation is releasing two limited-edition DualSense controllers themed after Grand Theft Auto VI, giving players a way to match their hardware to the game's aesthetic. These special editions replace standard controller designs with specific visual motifs that reflect the game's setting. Buyers who want a cohesive look for their PS5 setup when the title launches should note the release details and pricing now.
Black and white versions capture Vice City aesthetics
The two versions distinguish themselves through color and thematic focus. The white controller represents the bright days along the coast, while the black version captures the vibrant city nights. Both designs incorporate a shimmering, color-shifting finish that blends sunset hues with neon light glows. Custom palm tree details are molded directly into the controller body for a unique tactile experience.
- Design Theme: Palm tree motif, large VI Roman numerals on touchpad, purple pearlescent center material, shimmering color-shifting finish
- Color Variants: Black and White
- Release Date: November 19
- Pre-order Start: September 10 at 10:00 am local time
- Price (USD): $84.99
Visual identifiers include large VI Roman numerals printed on the touchpad. The center of the controller features a purple pearlescent material. According to PlayStation, the black and white limited-edition DualSense wireless controllers each capture the essence of Vice City, from bright days along the coast to vibrant city nights. Both editions feature a shimmering, color-shifting finish that brings together the hues of a Vice City sunset and the glow of neon lights. They both also feature custom palm tree details molded directly into the controller, adding a unique tactile element alongside official Grand Theft Auto VI branding.
Pre-orders begin on September 10 at 10:00 am local time. The controllers launch globally on November 19 in regions where PlayStation Direct is available. Pricing is set at $84.99 USD, 84.99 EUR (around $98.44), 74.99 GBP (around $101), and 12480 JPY (around $78.45). Outside of PlayStation Direct, it appears each controller will then be available at traditional retailers, though PlayStation has yet to confirm which retailers will carry the limited-edition DualSense controllers.
We looked at Sony: GTA 6 to feature near-instant loading on PS5 earlier while tracking related hardware news. The controllers are designed to complement the console's performance features rather than enhance them technically. The controllers will be available on November 19, aligning with the anticipated launch window for Grand Theft Auto VI.
