The PlayStation, a household name synonymous with gaming, is turning 30 in 2024. To mark this milestone, Sony is releasing a series of limited-edition PlayStation products that pay homage to the original PlayStation console, bringing back the iconic grey color scheme and signature button colors.
The highlight of this commemorative collection is the PlayStation 5 Pro 30th Anniversary Limited Edition Bundle, featuring the most powerful PlayStation 5 console yet. This bundle includes a PS5 Pro with a 2TB SSD, Wi-Fi 7, and a retro design inspired by the original PlayStation. The console sports a sleek grey finish, reminiscent of the first PlayStation, and proudly displays the iconic PlayStation logo in its original red, yellow, blue, and green color palette. This vibrant logo on the top left of the console adds a nostalgic touch and distinguishes it from the current white or black PlayStation logos.
Adding to the retro appeal, the lower left corner of the console boasts a dark grey PlayStation logo, followed by the inscription “30th Anniversary”, signifying the brand's three decades of revolutionizing gaming. The bundle also includes a Wireless DualSense Controller, Wireless DualSense Edge Controller, DualSense Charging Station, a vertical stand, and a console cover for the disc drive. Note that the disc drive itself is sold separately.
This retro-themed package extends beyond the console, offering a variety of collector's items. The bundle comes with a PlayStation sticker, a limited-edition PlayStation poster (one of 30 unique designs), a cable tie, and PlayStation-branded paper clips. Each item is carefully crafted to evoke the nostalgic spirit of the original PlayStation era.
The PlayStation 5 Slim Digital 30th Anniversary Limited Edition Bundle offers a streamlined option for gamers who prefer digital downloads. This bundle includes the PS5 Slim Digital Edition (without a disc drive), boasting a 1TB SSD. It also features the DualSense controller, a disc drive cover, and a vertical stand. Design-wise, it echoes the 30th Anniversary theme, adopting the same grey color scheme and retro elements as the PS5 Pro Limited Edition bundle.
The nostalgic journey continues with the PlayStation Portal 30th Anniversary Limited Edition. This handheld console is a testament to the original PlayStation's design, featuring a grey body and iconic buttons. The triangle, circle, square, and X buttons are rendered in the signature colors of the original PlayStation controller, making it a faithful homage to the console that started it all.
This exclusive collection will be available on November 21st, with pre-orders starting on September 26th through PlayStation Direct. While prices have yet to be announced, Sony has confirmed that only 12,300 PS5 Pro 30th Anniversary Limited Edition Bundle units will be available. The number of PS5 Slim Digital Edition bundles available is yet to be confirmed. The PlayStation Portal, DualSense controller, and DualSense Edge controller can be purchased separately from the bundles.
While the availability of these limited-edition products in other regions, including Indonesia, remains unconfirmed, it's clear that Sony is celebrating the PlayStation's legacy with a nostalgic flourish. This limited-edition collection caters to hardcore fans and those looking for a piece of gaming history.
With its retro design and limited availability, this 30th-anniversary collection will surely be a coveted collectible. For fans looking to commemorate PlayStation’s rich history, this is an opportunity to own a unique piece of gaming history.
