Sony’s new Midnight Black PlayStation accessories have officially rolled out today, giving PS5 owners the option to build an all-black gaming setup. Starting February 20th, the new collection, which includes the DualSense Edge Controller, PlayStation Portal, Pulse Elite headset, and Pulse Explore earbuds, will be available at major retailers, including Amazon and Best Buy.
This galaxy-inspired aesthetic builds on the success of Sony’s 2021 release of the Midnight Black DualSense controller and PS5 console covers, which quickly became a fan favorite. The new accessories retain the same pricing as their original counterparts, so this is a purely aesthetic upgrade.
Below, we’ve rounded up all the details and links to help you stealth up your gaming setup with the new midnight black PS5 accessories.
DualSense Edge Wireless Controller – Midnight Black
The Midnight Black DualSense Edge controller now boasts a stealthy design, with the black finish extending to the entire gamepad. The removable faceplate has a shiny, glossy black finish, while the grips and the rest of the controller feature a sleek matte black finish. The new colorway also comes in a matching black carrying case.
The DualSense Edge is a terrific upgrade over the standard DualSense controller. In addition to the industry-leading haptics and adaptive triggers, it offers several pro-level features, such as swappable thumbsticks, rear remappable buttons, adjustable analog sticks and triggers, and extensive customization options. It’s our top choice for PS5 controllers, and this new colorway makes it even more tempting.
PlayStation Portal Remote Player – Midnight Black
PlayStation’s handheld gaming device lets you play your favorite games away from your PS5 setup. You can stream games from another room or remotely from almost anywhere. Complete with adaptive triggers and haptic feedback, the PlayStation Portal delivers an authentic PS5 experience wherever you go. Its 8-inch 1080p display also makes games more immersive than using Remote Play on your phone. The Midnight Black PlayStation Portal features a fully matte black design, offering a cleaner and more understated look than the original white model.
Pulse Elite Wireless Headset – Midnight Black
Originally available in the white and black PS5 colorway, you can now pick up the Pulse Elite wireless headset decked out in a striking matte black finish to match your other black-themed PS5 accessories. These headsets are fine-tuned by Sony to deliver the best sound quality for the PS5 with features such as planar magnetic drivers and spatial audio. Compatible with the PS5, PlayStation Portal, PC, and other Bluetooth devices, the headphones can last up to 30 hours for extended gaming sessions.
Pulse Explore Wireless Earbuds – Midnight Black
Similar to the Pulse Elite headsets, the Pulse Explore also features planar magnetic drivers, Sony’s Tempest 3D Audio, and a lossless PS5 connection, delivering the best sound quality whether gaming or listening to music. Sony applied the Midnight Black paint job to the charging case as well, but the included carrying pouch has a felt gray finish. The Pulse Explore comes with six earbud tips, so you can be sure to find one that fits perfectly.
Alongside the new accessories, Sony also offers the standard DualSense controller and PS5 faceplates in a sleek, galaxy-inspired black colorway. The black DualSense controller is available at Best Buy for $75, while the black PS5 covers will set you back $55 over at PlayStation Direct for $55.
