Consoles used to return in enjoyable colours, typically with clear shells and different wild options. These days are lengthy gone, and now we largely get caught with black and white consoles with a number of restricted colour choices for equipment. So I’m comfortable to see Sony asserting some genuinely cool-looking console covers and controllers for the PlayStation 5 arriving in March.
On January 7, PlayStation unveiled its Hyperpop Collection, which options three vibrant new PS5 console covers and controllers. You will get a PS5 shell or Dualsense gamepad in Techno Purple, Remix Inexperienced, and/or Rhythm Blue. Foolish names apart, these console shells look superior, sporting a gradient design that goes from black on the highest to a vibrant colour on the backside, assuming you’ve gotten your PS5 standing up subsequent to your TV.
Nonetheless, what I actually discover thrilling are the three new controllers, which additionally sport the identical black to paint gradient sample. This stuff look sick as heck, and I would like one proper now to switch the boring black Dualsense controller I’ve been utilizing for a bit now.
Sony says the console covers will value $75, and the Hyperpop Dualsense controllers might be priced at $85. That’s $10 greater than a typical Dualsense, which is annoying. However that gradient design is soooo good that I’m keen to pay the additional worth. I’ll simply contemplate it a cool tax.
Sadly, I’ll have to attend a bit earlier than I can get my fingers on that Remix Inexperienced Dualsense controller. The Hyperpop Assortment launches on March 12, 2026, with Sony beginning pre-orders for the slick-looking {hardware} on January 16, 2026 at choose retailers and on PlayStation’s official retailer.
