PlayStation 5 Gets Midnight Black Accessories

Sony Unveils Sleek Midnight Black PlayStation 5 Accessory Collection

Sony has unveiled a stylish new Midnight Black Collection for the PlayStation 5, adding a touch of dark elegance to its lineup of accessories. The collection includes the DualSense Edge wireless controller, PlayStation Portal handheld remote player, Pulse Elite wireless headset, and Pulse Explore wireless earbuds.

This collection follows the success of previous color variations, offering a sophisticated alternative to the standard white PS5 aesthetic. The Midnight Black theme is a welcome addition for gamers who prefer a darker, more subdued look for their gaming setup.

Pricing and Availability:

The new Midnight Black accessories are priced as follows:

• DualSense Edge wireless controller: $199.99
• PlayStation Portal: $199.99
• Pulse Explore wireless earbuds: $199.99
• Pulse Elite wireless headset: $149.99

Pre-orders begin January 16th, 2025, at 10 AM ET, exclusively through direct.playstation.com. The full launch is scheduled for February 20th, 2025. Note that while the original Midnight Black Pulse 3D headset was $99.99, the Pulse Elite boasts enhanced features justifying its higher price point. Both the headset and earbuds include a stylish felt gray carrying case.

The collection's release coincides with the excitement surrounding CES 2025, and rumors suggest a significant PlayStation VR2 upgrade could further entice consumers.

Beyond the Midnight Black Collection, Sony continues to expand its range of themed DualSense controllers, with recent releases including those for God of War and Marvel’s Spider-Man 2. A limited-edition Helldivers 2 controller is also available for pre-order.
