If you want to change the look of your PS5, you are in luck. This is because Sony has announced special console covers coming in January 2022 that can seriously change the look of your PlayStation.

The first covers will match the covers of the existing controllers: Midnight Black and Cosmic Red. The next set of covers will have brand new colors. Visually, Sony describes these covers as “inspired by the galaxy”. These new colors are as follows: Galactic Purple, Nova Pink and Starlight Blue. Each cover will cost $ 55 and will be compatible with standard PS5 and Digital Edition consoles.

If you want your controllers to match the new colors, you won’t have to wait long. Sony is also releasing new DualSense controllers in the same colors, so you can get a new plate and a new controller for a sleek new aesthetic.


What prompted Sony to start working on these covers? There’s a chance someone at Sony recalled how much Xbox 360 fans loved buying new faceplates for that console and decided to bring the gimmick back for their own gaming systems. It is more likely, however, that Sony saw other companies making a profit by selling platters (including the Dbrand company, which Sony threatened to sue) and decided they shouldn’t have left any money on the table.

If you want to go ahead and pre-order one of these PS5 covers, you can do so via Sony’s official website. The black and red covers will arrive in January 2022, while the other colors will arrive in the first half of the year. Although for many players during the holiday season, the biggest challenge is still being able to find and purchase a PlayStation 5 in the first place!
