Sony and Rockstar Games have unveiled the first limited-edition DualSense controllers inspired by GTA 6, the most anticipated video game of the decade. These two exclusive PlayStation 5 models—one black and one white—are designed to capture the vibrant aesthetic of Vice City, the fictional Miami-inspired setting of the game.

What Was Announced
The black model is designed to represent the 'nightlife' of Vice City: the finish shifts color depending on the lighting, blending sunset hues with a vibrant neon glow. Meanwhile, the white model evokes the 'daytime', featuring a palette inspired by light sand and pastel skies. Both models share embossed palm leaf details molded directly into the controller's chassis, alongside the official GTA 6 logo engraved on the central touchpad.
Both controllers retain the core features of the standard DualSense: haptic feedback (subtle vibrations that simulate textures and impacts, such as feeling the difference between walking on sand or asphalt) and adaptive triggers, which make the L2 and R2 buttons offer variable resistance based on in-game actions—such as feeling heavier tension when pulling the trigger of a high-caliber weapon.
Pricing and Release Date
Each controller is priced at $84.99 and hits stores on November 19, 2026, coinciding with the launch of GTA 6. Pre-orders begin on September 10 directly through the PlayStation website and select retail partners, with stock strictly limited across participating regions.
Why This Is Making Waves
GTA 6 is easily the most heavily discussed launch in the gaming industry, and any related news—from trailers to official merch—tends to go viral instantly among fans. An exclusive controller serves as the ultimate collector's item for those eagerly awaiting the game, and a fierce race for limited stock is expected when pre-orders drop in September.
