Sony is introducing a vibrant new way to personalize your gaming setup with the upcoming Hyperpop Collection for PlayStation 5. This limited-edition series features customizable console covers and matching DualSense wireless controllers, all designed to inject a bold, energetic aesthetic into your entertainment space. The collection draws direct inspiration from the dynamic world of RGB lighting, translating that digital glow into three striking color options.

Available in Techno Red, Remix Green, and Rhythm Blue, each piece in the lineup showcases a distinctive glossy black shadow gradient effect. This design creates a visual transition from deep black into the core pop color, mimicking the kind of radiant light spill you might see from high-end PC components. It’s a look squarely aimed at gamers who appreciate a flash of personality in their hardware.

An important detail for prospective buyers is compatibility. These new decorative covers seem to be engineered specifically for the PS5 Slim model. This means owners of the original, bulkier PS5 console design, as well as those with the recently released PS5 Pro, will likely find that these panels are not a fit for their systems. The collection focuses exclusively on refreshing the Slim’s profile.

Mark your calendars if you’re interested. Pre-orders for the entire Hyperpop Collection will open on January 16. The official launch, when items begin shipping to customers, is set for March 12. Pricing follows Sony’s standard premium accessory tier. The specially designed DualSense wireless controllers will carry a retail price of $84.99 each. The console covers, which Sony notes will be produced in limited quantities, will cost $74.99. For full specifications and high-resolution images, the official PlayStation Blog will serve as the central hub for information.
