The faceplate trailer you’ve been waiting for.
After decades of purely black consoles, the PS5 stood out upon release for its use of striking, white faceplates. Now, more than a year after release, Sony is announcing a line of replacement faceplates in black and four other colors, alongside matching colored DualSense controllers.
The console covers are listed for $55 on the PlayStation Direct shop and come in options fitted for both the standard system and the disc drive-free Digital Edition. Colored controller options are listed for $75, a small premium over the $70 white DualSense controller.
