Sony is spicing things up for PlayStation fans in India with a new lineup of PlayStation 5 peripherals, but if you were hoping for the PS5 Pro, you’ll have to wait a bit longer. While you do that, the Chroma Collection peripherals and a Fortnite Limited Edition DualSense controller are set to hit shelves on November 7, 2024, on the same day the PlayStation 5 Pro becomes available globally.
Chroma Collection: Fresh colours for your current PS5
The Chroma Collection brings vibrant new hues to the DualSense wireless controller and swapable PS5 console covers, with options in “Chroma Indigo” and “Chroma Pearl.” Here’s a quick rundown of what’s on offer and their prices:
DualSense Wireless Controller – Chroma Indigo and Chroma Pearl: These controllers, available in deep indigo and a sleek pearl finish, are priced at Rs 6,849 each.
PS5 Console Covers (Slim) – Chroma Indigo and Chroma Pearl: Matching console covers are available for those who want the same look, priced at Rs 5,569 each.
The Chroma Collection aims to bring more personalisation options to PS5 gamers, allowing them to customise their setups in unique colours beyond the standard white.
Fortnite Limited Edition DualSense Controller
For Fortnite fans, Sony is also launching a Fortnite Limited Edition DualSense controller, priced at Rs 7,490. This special edition controller showcases a unique design inspired by Fortnite’s aesthetic, allowing fans of the popular battle royale game to add a themed accessory to their PlayStation experience.
Where’s the PS5 Pro?
While these new accessories are exciting, the long-awaited PlayStation 5 Pro isn’t part of the lineup in India yet. Set to launch globally on November 7, 2024, the PS5 Pro features significant upgrades over the standard PS5. Highlights include a 67 percent faster GPU, enhanced memory, AI upscaling with Sony’s Spectral Super Resolution, and 2TB of storage. The PS5 Pro also promises more realistic ray tracing, leading to lifelike lighting and shadow effects in games. It will be priced at USD 699.99 (around Rs 59,000), though Sony hasn’t shared specific India availability or pricing for the PS5 Pro at this time.
