On 3 September, Sony revealed two limited-edition Grand Theft Auto VI DualSense controllers on the PlayStation Blog: one white and one black. They cost $84.99 / €84.99, pre-orders opened on 10 September and they launch on 19 November, the same day as the game.

What they look like

Both share the same design; only the base colour changes:

  • Iridescent, colour-shifting finish with a strong purple tone.
  • Raised palm tree details on the grips.
  • GTA VI logo on the touchpad.
  • Purple buttons.

Inside, nothing changes: it is a standard DualSense with the same adaptive triggers and haptic feedback. Sony has not added any GTA VI-specific features.

Where to buy each one

ModelWhere it is sold
BlackPlayStation Direct only (Sony’s own store)
WhitePlayStation Direct and participating retailers

The black one is the harder one to get: as it is only sold on Sony’s store, there are fewer units. The white one can also be found at retailers.

If you find it on resale sites, always compare against the official $84.99 / €84.99 price and check the seller is trustworthy before paying.

Is it worth it?

If you already have a DualSense that works well, this controller gives you no gameplay advantage: it is about design and collecting. If you need a second controller or yours has stick drift, for a little more than a standard one you get the GTA VI version.

For the game itself, editions and what each includes are in GTA 6 editions and price. And if you want more merchandise, the $399.99 collector’s box does not include the game.
