Sony has announced a limited edition classic-colored console range for its 30th anniversary, with versions of both the newly-announced PlayStation 5 Pro and the PS5 Digital Edition, both sporting a retro gray finish.
As you’d expect, there’s a matching grey-coloured DualSense controller to go with the consoles. There’s also a gray PlayStation Portal – remember that? – too.
Both the PS5 Pro and the PS5 Digital Edition also have classic-colored PlayStation logos and textured plastic with the PlayStation symbols embossed in.
The entire range will only be available “while supplies last”, although the PS5 Pro in particular will be in very short supply. Only 12,300 30th Anniversary PS5 Pro consoles will be sold (which Sony explained is a reference to the brand’s original 3rd December launch date). Each will be individually numbered.
Sony will open pre-orders on 26th September via direct.playstation.com ahead of the range’s release on 21st November.
Crucially, there’s no word yet on how much any of this will cost. (If a standard PS5 Pro costs £700, any guesses for what this might set you back?)
Both consoles will be packaged with a DualSense controller (the Pro gets a DualSense Edge as well) and also include a smattering of extra items. You get a retro PlayStation controller cable, four cable ties themed to the four PlayStation controller button shapes, a PlayStation sticker, a PlayStation poster, and a PlayStation paperclip.
The first PlayStation console launched in Japan on 3rd December 1994 – an anniversary that’s now fast approaching. (Here in the UK, we had to wait until September 1995 for the PS1 to arrive on these shores.)
