Limited-Edition Fortnite DualSense Controller Revealed Alongside PS5’s New Chroma Line
PlayStation unveiled multiple new controllers and PS5 console covers during the latest State of Play presentation. Most notably, Fortnite is getting its own limited-edition DualSense on November 7. It has a blue color scheme and graffiti-style decals inspired by the game. PlayStation also unveiled its new Chroma Collection, which gives three DualSense colors and matching console covers a flashy chrome finish.
The Fortnite controller certainly stands out with a chaotic design that’s the complete opposite of the recently released Astro Bot controller (sold out). Nevertheless, it’s a limited-edition DualSense controller themed around Fortnite, so it will likely sell out fast when preorders go live October 3.
Aside from the Fortnite theming, the controller is otherwise the same as other standard DualSense controllers, complete with features like haptic feedback, dynamic triggers, touchpad, and gyro controls. PlayStation recently raised the price of DualSense controllers by five bucks, and the Fortnite controller reflects this change with an $85 list price. The Astro Bot controller only costs $80 (if you can find it), probably because preorders were already available when the increase went into effect. Going forward, limited-edition DualSense controllers will likely cost $85.
