Palms, neon, and Vice City vibes: How to preorder the limited-edition GTA 6 PS5 controllers

Sony has officially unveiled two limited-edition DualSense controllers for Grand Theft Auto VI, giving the PS5 gamepads matching Vice City-inspired makeovers ahead of Rockstar’s long-awaited sequel.

Both the black and white limited-edition GTA 6 controllers are priced at $84.99 and are set for release on Nov. 19 — the same day as GTA VI.

Both controllers borrow heavily from Vice City’s unmistakable aesthetic in different eye-catching ways. Both shells pack shimmering, color-shifting finishes that mix sunset hues with neon blues, plus custom palm tree details molded directly into the plastic and official Grand Theft Auto VI branding. If you’re a longtime GTA fan, the oversized ‘VI’ that’s taking over the touchpad will make this a must-buy.

The white model is taking cues from Vice City’s beaches, pastel skies, and sunny day-glamor.

Meanwhile, the black edition is all about channeling the gaming city’s nightlife. It’s still got the same Florida-style palm trees, but in a more classically chic PlayStation black.

The announcement on the PlayStation Blog does state that both will be available at “participating retailers,” but for now, the only way to preorder the GTA VI DualSense controllers is through PlayStation Direct — starting on Sept. 10 at 7 a.m. PT/10 a.m. ET. Eligible orders placed directly through PlayStation will also get free launch-day delivery.

Stock will be available in limited quantities and will sell out fast. We’d advise bookmarking this article as a reminder and quickly jumping to the link above.

Beyond their new looks, they’re still standard DualSense controllers, so they include haptic feedback and adaptive triggers. You’ll get what you need as you play through Jason and Lucia’s story, but you won’t have any added features beyond the new, stylish aesthetics.

Keep in mind that although both GTA 6 controllers officially launch on Nov. 19, exact availability will vary by country and region.
