The collection in the classic gray hue circa 1994 includes matching DualSense and DualSense Edge controllers, controller dock, cover for a disc drive, and the PlayStation Portal Remote Play handheld.

They’ll have the original multi-coloured PlayStation logo and buttons, as well as packaging that’s reminiscent of the original PlayStation. Just seeing that gave me a huge shot of nostalgia.
“The new limited edition designs pay homage to 30 wonderful years of gaming, a journey made possible by the passion and support of our fans and talented game developers,” Sony says.
“Reminiscent of the very first PlayStation console to launch on December 3, 1994, this limited edition offering utilizes the original PlayStation color design and integrates it into the latest line of PS5 hardware products.”
