PlayStation is embracing nostalgia with its new Prism Collection, offering translucent DualSense controllers and PS5 Slim console covers. This range features a distinctive bright, see-through design reminiscent of late 1990s and early 2000s technology. The collection will be available in three colorways: Graphite Gray, Flare Orange, and Emerald Green.
Fans have eagerly awaited a translucent controller option, and the Prism Collection aims to meet this demand. Pre-orders are scheduled to commence on November 10, 2026, at 10 a.m. ET in the U.S. and 10 a.m. GMT in the U.K. While pre-orders are available this week, the actual shipping date for these highly anticipated items is set for February 4, 2027.
Console covers for the Prism Collection will be exclusive to PlayStation Direct. The DualSense controllers, however, will see a wider release through major retailers such as Amazon, Walmart, and Best Buy. This launch marks a significant aesthetic shift, catering to both retro enthusiasts and those desiring a glimpse of the controller's internal components.
