Sony Unveils Sleek Midnight Black PlayStation 5 Accessories
Sony has announced a stylish new Midnight Black Collection for the PlayStation 5, featuring four premium accessories: the DualSense Edge controller, PlayStation Portal handheld, Pulse Elite wireless headset, and Pulse Explore wireless earbuds. These additions to Sony's growing range of color options follow the success of previous releases like the Volcanic Red and Galactic Purple controllers.
The new collection offers a sophisticated dark aesthetic, appealing to gamers who prefer a more subdued look. All four accessories will be available for pre-order starting January 16th, 2025, and launch on February 20th, 2025, exclusively through direct.playstation.com.
Pricing for the Midnight Black Collection 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
While the price point is higher than some previous releases (the original Midnight Black Pulse 3D headset was $99.99), the Pulse Elite headset and earbuds include carrying cases, adding to their premium feel. The DualSense Edge controller also includes its own black carrying case.
This launch coincides with the excitement surrounding CES 2025 and follows recent rumors of a significant PlayStation VR2 upgrade, further fueling interest in Sony's latest offerings. The Midnight Black Collection provides a sleek and modern update for PS5 owners.
Beyond the Midnight Black Collection, Sony continues to expand its range of themed DualSense controllers. The recently announced limited-edition Helldivers 2 DualSense controller is already available for pre-order.
