PlayStation has confirmed a restock of its 30th Anniversary DualSense controller in select regions, and other products from the collection, like the PS5 Digital console and the PS Portal, will also be available. When the limited-edition PlayStation gadgets were first released, many players missed out on them, but now fans will have a new opportunity to obtain them.
In 2024, to commemorate 30 years of the PlayStation brand, Sony released a limited 30th Anniversary Collection of PS products with a PS1-inspired design. This included special-edition variants of the PS5 Pro and PS5 consoles, the DualSense Edge and wireless controllers, the PS Portal, and other accessories. The 30th Anniversary PS5 Pro sold out in seconds, with the rest of the product line following soon after. Fortunately for fans, Sony is bringing back some of the limited-edition goods, though not all players will have access to the restock.

At the time of writing this article, Sony hasn’t confirmed a restock for its US storefront. Nonetheless, industry insider Wario64 spotted a now-deleted post by PlayStation US that mentioned a resupply of the 30th Anniversary DualSense controller. Fans will have to wait for an official confirmation from Sony regarding its availability, though.
If the 30th Anniversary Edition restock maintains the same price as the original drop, players can expect the DualSense Wireless Controller to sell for $79.99, the PS5 Digital Edition Bundle for $499.99, and the PS Portal for $219.99. The collection’s initial launch was heavily targeted by scalpers who were reselling the items for exorbitant prices. PlayStation fought back against scalpers in Japan by restricting purchases to active PSN accounts. Whether Sony could apply these rules once again remains to be seen.
The limited relaunch will hopefully let more players add the nostalgic PS5 accessories to their collection. The 30th Anniversary Edition gadgets aren’t the only special-edition PlayStation products coming later this year, though. Sony has also announced new stunning Ghost of Yotei PS5 console bundles showcasing several references to the upcoming game.
