Ahead Of The PS5 Launch, Some PS4 DualShock Colors Are Back

Sony is gearing up for the launch of the PlayStation 5, but that doesn't the market has dried up for current-gen controllers. The company has announced that four PlayStation 4 controller colors are making a comeback. The Berry Blue, Red Camouflage, Rose Gold, and Steel Black DualShock 4 controllers will be purchasable again this month.

These four colors will be available to buy in retail stores and on digital storefronts like Amazon and GameStop. Sony also shared a short video showcasing the returning colors, along with the many other DualShock 4 colors the company has released.

While Sony didn't specify when they would be available to purchase, it seems the returning DualShock 4 controller colors are available on Amazon. Some, like the Steel Black controller, are available to ship now while others, such as the Red Camouflage color, will be restocked in mid-September. They'll each retail for about $65 USD.

Sony recently confirmed that while PS4 accessories will be compatible with the PlayStation 5, the DualShock 4 won't work with next-gen games. PS5 will ship with a brand-new controller called DualSense. PS4 controllers can be used to play PS4 games on the system, or with other devices, including PCs, phones, and tablets.

In other PlayStation deals news, the PlayStation Store is holding a massive sale where some 500 games are discounted. The PlayStation Store's Summer Sale runs until August 20, and the laundry list of games includes Control for $21, Dragon Ball FighterZ: Ultimate Edition for $17.59, Maneater for $30, and many more.
