PlayStation's Leo Cardoso from the Color, Material and Finish design team had plenty to say about this new controller in the PlayStation Blog: "Inspired by PlayStation’s iconic shades of blue, this design captures the feeling of anticipation and wonder every time you pick up the controller." Alongside the blues all around the controller itself, it also features a fun pattern of PlayStation shapes on the touch pad.
On top of its colorful design, Cardoso also adds that, "As a nod to our origins, we added Katakana characters on the back that spell our name the Japanese way: Pureisutēshon." If PlayStation is your go-to console, this is sure to be a stunning addition to your setup.
If you've dropped cash on this controller and are now looking for some good PlayStation deals to jump on next, the good news is Black Friday is coming up fast. While the sale event itself doesn't officially start until November 28, deals will sometimes start dropping right from the start of the month. So, if you're looking for discounts on PS5 games or more accessories, it's worth it to keep an eye out over the next few weeks for any that pop up at various retailers, including Walmart.
