Sony Drops Price of DualSense Edge Controller in UK
PS5 owners in the UK have reason to celebrate as Sony has announced a price drop for the premium DualSense Edge controller. The new price of £199.99 is now £10 cheaper than its original price, making it a more attractive option for gamers.
Sony Introduces Midnight Black Collection
On January 7, Sony revealed new Midnight Black versions of some of its top PS5 hardware, including the PlayStation Portal, Pulse Explore earbuds, Pulse Elite gaming headset, and the DualSense Edge controller. This announcement also included the news of the price drop for the controller in the UK.
Price Drop Details
In a post on the PlayStation Blog, Sony confirmed that the DualSense Edge controller will now be priced at £199.99 in the UK, down from £209.99. This price reduction applies to both the original white version and the new Midnight Black variant, bringing it in line with the US price of $199.99. While the price drop may seem small, it’s a significant move to make the controller more accessible to gamers.
The new price is already in effect at PlayStation Direct and Argos in the UK, but other retailers like Currys and Game are still selling the controller at its original price. Gamers looking to take advantage of the price drop should purchase from retailers offering the discounted price.
