The most notable was the PlayStation 30th Anniversary collection launched in November 2024, featuring a range of products in the iconic grey color of the original PlayStation console, including a standard DualSense, PS5 Slim, PS5 Pro, PlayStation Portal, and DualSense Edge controller.
While some special edition controllers may still be available, they often come at a premium due to their limited production. Besides the 30th Anniversary collection, Sony has also released limited edition DualSense controllers celebrating games like God of War: Ragnarok, Marvel's Spider-Man 2, the ill-fated Concord, Astro Bot, and most recently The Last of Us.
