Sony has revealed a new lineup of original PlayStation-inspired grey hardware, including two PS5 consoles.
In a blog post, the company detailed the ’30th Anniversary Collection,’ which comes ahead of the PlayStation brand’s big 3-0 in December. As part of those anniversary celebrations, the company is debuting the following nostalgic products:
- PlayStation 5 Pro Console — 30th Anniversary Limited Edition Bundle (includes the 2TB console and matching controller, plus themed cable connector housing, four PlayStation Shapes cable ties, a PlayStation sticker, one of 30 limited edition PlayStation posters and a PlayStation paperclip)
- PlayStation 5 Digital Edition — 30th Anniversary Limited Edition Bundle (includes the 1TB console, matching controller and vertical stand, plus themed cable connector housing, four PlayStation Shapes cable ties, a PlayStation sticker, one of 30 limited edition PlayStation posters and a PlayStation paperclip)
- PlayStation Portal Remote Player — 30th Anniversary Limited Edition (standalone)
- DualSense Edge Wireless Controller — 30th Anniversary Limited Edition (standalone)
- DualSense Wireless Controller — 30th Anniversary Limited Edition (standalone)
Notably, only 12,300 units of the limited edition PS5 Pro bundle will be sold worldwide in a nod to the December 3rd, 1994 Japanese launch of the original PlayStation.
The PlayStation 30th Anniversary Collection will launch worldwide on November 21st, just two weeks after the recently revealed PS5 Pro. In the blog post, PlayStation doesn’t confirm pricing for the hardware, simply noting that pre-orders will be offered to those in countries serviced by ‘direct.playstation.com’ — in other words, not Canada. Otherwise, pre-orders for countries without access to the PlayStation Direct website will see pre-orders begin starting September 26th at “participating retailers.”
MobileSyrup has reached out to PlayStation Canada for Canadian pricing and availability and will update this story once a response has been received. Given that PlayStation is only selling the special PS5 and PS5 Pro consoles in bundles, it’s unclear exactly how much they might cost. For context, the standard Digital Edition PS5 is priced at $579.99 in Canada, while the PS5 Pro was just confirmed to cost a staggering $959.99.
In other PlayStation anniversary news, the company recently released the PS5 platformer Astro Bot, the highest-rated game of 2024, which celebrates decades of gaming history. Other PlayStation anniversary initiatives include the release of digital God of War soundtracks, a free version of Gran Turismo 7, and free multiplayer weekends.
