Tired of that giant white slab of a PlayStation 5 in your living room and looking to add a bit of pizzazz to your surroundings?

Those interested in giving their PS5 a «Deep Earth» makeover can, when the appropriate time comes, pick up each of the three shiny new covers for £49.99/€59.99/$59.99 USD, while the DualSense controllers (sold separately) will each cost £64.99/€74.99/$74.99 USD.
