The PlayStation Anniversary bundle also includes some nice throwbacks and other PlayStation items.

There’s also some other PlayStation trinkets included, like a paperclip and cable ties adorned with PS iconography.

Sony states that only 12,300 units of this bundle will be made, so if you want to get your hands on one, you’ll definitely want to get in line to pre-order it when it’s released.

not defined

This portable PS5 game streaming device doesn’t come with any accessories, but it does come in the original console’s color scheme, featuring the colorful ’90s PS logo.

not defined

This is the same DualSense Edge pro-style controller that’s been around for a while, but with a PS1 style twist to give it an extra fresh look. This is a great controller, so it should come as no surprise that it ranks high on our list of the best PS5 controllers.

DualSense Wireless Controller – 30th Anniversary Limited Edition

It’s a regular DualSense PS5 controller, but in the original PlayStation colors. I like it.
