Two New Colors for PS5 DualSense Controllers
Next month you'll be able to buy the DualSense controller in Midnight Black or Cosmic Red.

The PS5 DualSense controller is my favorite controller to play on because of the updates that were made to the DualShock. It's slightly larger and fits in my hand better, the haptic feedback is fantastic (especially in the games that pay special attention to it), and the triggers feel much better. It's a great controller but it only came in white, until now (or more accurately about a month from now).
Playstation will be releasing two new colors for the DualSense: Midnight Black and Crimson Red. Playstation says "Midnight Black features two subtly different shades of black with light grey detailing to reflect how we view space through the night sky, and Cosmic Red offers a striking black and red design inspired by the unique vivid shades of red found throughout the cosmos". So there's black with a slightly darker black, and a red and black combo.
I will say while the black seems pretty standard the color they went with for the Cosmic Red is fairly unique. I like that they didn't make the entire controller red and left it a red-and-black combo, while the red is fairly muted so it's not too bright. Either way having a few different color combinations is always a positive. Sadly I already have four white DualSense controllers but I'll pick up the Cosmic Red as my controller that I will inevitably spill orange soda on making the buttons sticky.
