Where to buy the PS5 30th Anniversary DualSense controller: pre-orders are live now

PS5 30th Anniversary DualSense Controller pre-orders are going live, with list pages appearing and queues forming at PlayStation Direct. As a result, we’ve begun tracking stock live and will keep this page updated with all the best places to try your hand at the glorious new gamepad.

The DualSense is one of two products from the full 30th Anniversary suite that will be available for purchase separately and at retailers other than PlayStation Direct. It’s likely to be a hot commodity, so if you’re interested, don’t hesitate!

To keep it short, you can jump into the 30th Anniversary DualSense now – as well as all the broader ‘regular’ PS5 Pro pre-orders and the rest of the PlayStation 30th Anniversary pre-orders. There’s still No official word on pricing, but it will be a surprise when listings go live later today. Speaking of which, we think For fans in the UK, the match kicks off at 10am (BST), but hopefully the US won’t be away for too long.

But anyway, let’s get started: below you’ll find the best places to try and grab a 30th Anniversary Dualsense pre-order in the UK and US as soon as they go live. The TechRadar Gaming team and I will keep this page as up to date as possible, in real time, throughout the day, so keep checking back if you’re unlucky or want to wait for your preferred retailer.

Should You Pre-Order the PS5 30th Anniversary DualSense Controller?

Whether or not you should pre-order the PS5 30th Anniversary DualSense Controller largely depends on how eager you are to get your hands on this special edition design. If you’re particularly attached to the PlayStation brand, or have a lot of nostalgia for the gunmetal look of the original PlayStation, then this should definitely be on your radar. It’d also make a good collector’s item, as it commemorates a significant milestone in the brand’s history.

I expect demand for this controller to be exceptionally high compared to previous releases. This means it will likely sell out quickly when it is available and snagging a pre-order may be your best chance to get your hands on one.

That said, if you’re happy with your current DualSense or just don’t like the design, you can avoid the stress of the pre-order rush. There’s also a small chance that this model will become more widely available in the future via potential restocks, though nothing has been officially confirmed yet.
