Excitement has been brewing among gamers in the UK as the highly coveted 30th-anniversary edition PlayStation 5 (PS5) controller was recently announced by Sony. The limited-edition controller, which pays homage to the iconic PlayStation 1, quickly became a hot item for enthusiasts when pre-orders opened.
Sony’s unveiling of a special 30th-anniversary collection featuring consoles and accessories created a buzz in the gaming community. When pre-orders for the PS5 Pro launched on 10th October, they sold out within a couple of hours. However, it was the PS5 Pro 30th anniversary edition console that flew off the shelves within minutes, leaving fans eager for more.
Not stopping there, other items from PlayStation’s 30th-anniversary line, including the PS1-inspired PS5 Slim and the limited-edition PS5 DualSense controller, also quickly disappeared from online shelves. With demand still high, nostalgic gamers are on the lookout for opportunities to secure a 30th-anniversary edition DualSense controller.
Argos recently joined the list of retailers offering the 30th-anniversary controller, providing a chance for gamers to get their hands on this piece of gaming history. The DualSense controller is priced at £69.99 and boasts a unique greyscale design with the classic PS1 colour palette and logo in the centre.
Featuring advanced technology like haptic feedback and responsive trigger buttons, the limited-edition DualSense controller offers an immersive gaming experience. While the controller sold out swiftly on PlayStation Direct, UK retailers like Amazon, the EE Store, and now Argos have been releasing limited stock periodically.
As of now, the 30th-anniversary DualSense controller is still available at Argos, offering fans a chance to secure this special edition device. For those eager to pre-order, keeping an eye on retailer updates and checking stock availability regularly will be key to getting their hands on this sought-after controller.
