Sony Unveils Sleek Midnight Black PlayStation 5 Accessories
Sony has unveiled its new Midnight Black Collection for the PlayStation 5, adding a stylish dark aesthetic to several popular accessories. The collection includes the DualSense Edge wireless controller, PlayStation Portal handheld remote player, Pulse Elite wireless headset, and Pulse Explore wireless earbuds.
The collection's pricing is as follows:
- DualSense Edge wireless controller: $199.99
- PlayStation Portal: $199.99
- Pulse Explore wireless earbuds: $199.99
- Pulse Elite wireless headset: $149.99
Pre-orders begin January 16th, 2025, at 10 AM ET, with a full launch on February 20th, 2025, exclusively at direct.playstation.com.
This announcement follows the excitement generated by CES 2025 and builds on Sony's previous releases of colored DualSense controllers, including Volcanic Red, Cobalt Blue, and Galactic Purple. The Midnight Black collection offers a sophisticated alternative to the standard white PS5 accessories. The DualSense Edge controller, in particular, benefits from a modern black carrying case.
The Pulse Elite headset, while pricier than its predecessor ($149.99 vs. $99.99), includes a felt gray carrying case (shared with the earbuds). The Pulse Explore earbuds also carry a premium $199.99 price tag.
Beyond the Midnight Black Collection, Sony continues to expand its themed DualSense controller lineup. The limited-edition Helldivers 2 DualSense controller, announced in December 2024, is currently available for pre-order.
