When PlayStation 5 was first revealed last year, many fans weren’t pleased by its look. Okay, maybe not so much about the look, as much as the color. So far, PlayStation 5 could’ve been bought only in white color rather than regular black color that PS4 and PS3 had.

Now, if you’re one of those gamers who didn’t like how the newest PlayStation console looked in its first color – problem solved. Well, it will be. Sony now presented new console covers that will be available next year. Yes, PlayStation 5 will soon be available in Midnight Black, but also Cosmic Red, Nova Pink, Galactic Purple, and Starlight Blue. Now it’s not only about choosing between the regular and digital edition of the console, you’ll need to pick a color too. So many options.

You can see Sony’s official announcement on Twitter down below. Sony also announced that the DualSense controller will also be available in all these new colors.

PS5 console covers in midnight black and cosmic red will be available in January 2022 in the USA, Canada, UK, France, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam, Korea, and the Philippines. Console covers in nova pink, galactic purple, and starlight blue will be available during the first half of 2022.

If you already own PS5, no worries, these covers will be available separately. Just remove the original white covers and put the cover in the color of your preference. Prices are unknown at the time. The launch dates for both the console covers and the controller may vary by location and region. You’ll need to check the availability with your local retailer to be sure.

Since 2018, Lukas has worked on several portals writing about movies, TV shows, and video games. He's currently writing articles for two of them: Fiction Horizon and Comic Basics. He also has a YouTube channel in his native language, and the content there is mostly reviewing popular movies and TV shows. Lukas also has an Instagram page where he once used to post fan-made posters he made, which is something he would like to continue working on, as photo and video editing are also some of his passions. Lukas is a big movie lover who is okay with watching any kind of movie. His favorite movie is Michael Curtiz's Casablanca, but he's a loyal follower of Marvel and DC movies, as well as several other blockbuster franchises he's been following for years; Star Wars, Fast & Furious, Mission: Impossible, and James Cameron's Avatar are only some of them. His favorite director is Christopher Nolan, with Quentin Tarantino and Denis Villeneuve as honorable mentions. Lukas is also a big fan of four fantasy multimedia franchises; The Wizarding World, A Song of Ice and Fire, The Witcher, and The Lord of the Rings. He calls them "the four rulers of the fantasy genre." He loves to write about anything spawned from those franchises (books, games, movies...), as well as anything branded with the Marvel or DC logo. Video games and their adaptations are also something he follows faithfully since he's a big fan of story-driven single-player games like Assassin's Creed, The Last of Us, Uncharted, etc. His favorite video game ever is Red Dead Redemption 2.
