  • Sony to Release PS1 Themed PlayStation 5 Consoles

    Another part of their 30th anniversary celebration.

    Sony shared a look at another part of their 30th anniversary celebration of the PlayStation brand. As we creep ever closer to the 30th anniversary release of the PlayStation 1, Sony has introduced the PlayStation 30th Anniversary Collection.

    There will be limited edition designs of the PlayStation 5 Pro, PlayStation 5 Digital Edition, PlayStation Portal Remote Player, DualSense Edge controller, and DualSense controller. Each of these items will take on a matte grey look, similar to that of the original PlayStation console. The PlayStation logo on these devices also use the original rainbow color scheme.

    Earlier this month, Sony announced a few other ways they are celebrating PlayStation's 30th anniversary.

    • PlayStation 5 Pro Console – 30th Anniversary Limited Edition BundIe
      • Includes the limited edition PS5 Pro console with 2TB SSD, Wi-Fi 7 in territories supporting this standard, and matching limited edition accessories – DualSense wireless controller, DualSense Edge wireless controller, DualSense Charging Station, and a Console Cover for a Disc Drive (Disc Drive sold separately).
      • It also includes a Vertical Stand and special collector’s Items:
    • Original PlayStation controller-style cable connector housing
    • Four PlayStation Shapes cable ties
    • PlayStation sticker
    • Limited Edition PlayStation Poster (1 of 30 possible designs)
    • PlayStation Paperclip
    • PlayStation 5 Digital Edition – 30th Anniversary Limited Edition Bundle
      • Includes the limited edition PS5 Digital Edition console with 1TD SSD and matching limited edition accessories – DualSense wireless controller and a Console Cover for a Disc Drive (Disc Drive sold separately).
      • It also includes a Vertical Stand and special collector’s Items:
    • Original PlayStation controller-style cable connector housing
    • Four PlayStation Shapes cable ties
    • PlayStation sticker
    • Limited Edition PlayStation Poster (1 of 30 possible designs)
    • PlayStation Paperclip
    This collection will be released on November 21, 2024. Sony says there will be just 12,300 units of the PlayStation 5 Pro Console bundle available to purchase. That specific amount was chosen because the original PlayStation was released on December 3, 1994. I think they should have gone with 12,394 units, but that's just me.

    Sony did not state how limited the non-Pro bundles and items will be.
