PlayStation 5 (and PC) players can once again reserve the DualSense 30th Anniversary Limited Edition controller. After selling out last year, PlayStation has restocked it in its official store at a price of €79.99.

This special model is highly sought after by collectors and fans, as it celebrates the 30th anniversary of the original PlayStation’s launch in Japan.

Features of the DualSense 30th Anniversary

This controller comes with an exclusive gray design, evoking the classic look of the first PlayStation. It also includes:

  • Buttons with traditional colors, just like the PS1 controllers.
  • The PlayStation logo returns to the original 1994 design.
  • A limit of one unit per user, given the limited production.

A commemorative product line

The DualSense 30th Anniversary isn’t the only product released for this celebration. In 2024, Sony introduced several commemorative accessories:

  • DualSense Edge 30th Anniversary – A premium customizable controller priced at €249.99, currently sold out.
  • PS Portal 30th Anniversary – The PS5 streaming handheld in a special design, returning on September 29 for €239.99.
  • PS5 Digital Edition 30th Anniversary – A commemorative console (not the Pro model), priced at €549.99, which includes a matching DualSense controller.
