Sony Interactive Entertainment’s Prism Collection of transparent DualSense wireless controllers costs $84.99 and matching PS5 console covers cost $74.99, with preorders opening November 10, 2026 and launch starting February 4, 2027. The collection comes in three glossy see-through colors: Flare Orange, Emerald Green, and Graphite Gray.
Isabelle Tomatis, Vice President, Global Marketing at Sony Interactive Entertainment, announced the lineup on the PlayStation Blog. She said the design teams wanted to give players a closer look at the craftsmanship inside DualSense controllers and PlayStation 5 consoles, with each color finished in a premium glossy sheen.

Why transparent controllers now?
Leo Cardoso of Sony’s Color, Material, and Finish design team pointed to fan demand. “We know how much our fans have been looking forward to the return of transparent controllers,” Cardoso said. “We wanted to bring back the iconic see-through trend of the late ’90s in a fresh, modern way that complements the PS5’s industrial design.”
Satoshi Aoyagi, from the same team, said the high-gloss clear finish extends across the back of the controller, “offering a look at the technology that powers the DualSense controller while maintaining a sleek, monochromatic look.” Aoyagi described the orange as taking on “a rosy hue where the transparent material overlaps,” alongside a deep hunter green and a cool-toned storm gray.
