It was initially available in white, but Sony has slowly released new colour options for the controller, including the most recent additions; Nova Pink, Starlight Blue and Galactic Purple. After a teaser in December 2021, the new colourful DualSense colour variants are available to buy in the UK and US now – we list everywhere you can pick them up right here. You can also read up on Sony’s upcoming customisable controller, the DualSense Edge.
When were the new DualSense colour options released?
The new DualSense colour options – Galactic Purple, Starlight Blue and Nova Pink – are all available to buy right now following a 14 January 2022 launch in the UK, and an 11 February 2022 launch in the US.
How much do the new DualSense controllers cost?
The good news is that the new DualSense colour options cost the same as the other variants available. The bad news is that the standard price is at the high end of the scale at £64.99/US$74.99, and don’t expect any kind of discounts or deals either – they’re a rarity when it comes to Sony’s controllers.
Where can I buy the new colourful DualSense controllers?
As we’ve alluded to, the new DualSense colour options are available to buy from PlayStation Direct and a handful of retailers in the UK and US right now. We’ve listed retailers stocking the colourful DualSense controllers right now, and we’ll continue to add more retailers as stock appears, so check back frequently for the latest details.

How many colour variants of the DualSense controller are there?
While the PS5 shipped with the white DualSense controller at launch, Sony has since launched a handful of more attractive colour options for the next-gen controller. It started with Midnight Black and Cosmic Red, before expanding more recently to Galactic Purple, Starlight Blue and Nova Pink for a total of five. The best part? Sony has released new PS5 cover plates to match the new colourways, so your console and controller can still match! Lewis Painter is a Senior Staff Writer at Tech Advisor.
