Inspired by PlayStation’s storied heritage, here’s a first look at the DualSense wireless controller – Icon Blue Special Edition, which features unique, layered shades of blue and a glossy pattern of PlayStation shapes on the touch pad.
To share more about the inspiration behind this upcoming controller, here’s Leo Cardoso from our Color, Material and Finish design team:
“From the moment the console powers on and the DualSense controller lights up, that signature blue glow signals the start of something special. It’s the spark that draws you into new worlds and immersive gameplay. Inspired by PlayStation’s iconic shades of blue, this design captures the feeling of anticipation and wonder every time you pick up the controller. As a nod to our origins, we added Katakana characters on the back that spell our name the Japanese way: Pureisutēshon.“
Starting on October 20 in the U.S. and Canada, October 28 in Mexico and Chile, the DualSense wireless controller – Icon Blue Special Edition will be available for a recommended retailer price (RRP) of $84.99 USD / $109.99 CAD / $1,899 MXN / $93,490 CLP at Walmart locations in these regions as well as on Walmart’s official site.
