Two New DualSense Controllers

Grand Theft Auto VI Black Limited Edition
Grand Theft Auto VI White Limited Edition

Both variants feature the same core special elements, including a chameleon‑shift iridescent surface finish that shifts between warm sunset and neon purple‑blue hues depending on lighting, embossed palm‑tree textures on the rear grip handles, official GTA VI logo branding, and the complete standard DualSense hardware set with haptic feedback, adaptive triggers and an integrated built‑in microphone. The GTA VI controllers are strictly limited‑run; once sold out, no further restocks are planned.

Black Limited Edition Controller (Vice City Night Theme)

Base deep matte‑black shell, inspired by Vice City neon‑lit nightlife nights
Iridescent layers pop with purple, magenta, and electric‑blue neon reflections under light
GTA VI logo printed in metallic violet
Rear palm‑tree emboss is dark‑toned, subtle in low light, reveals texture when light hits

White Limited Edition (Vice City Day / Beach Theme)

Soft off‑white base shell, themed around Vice City coastal daylight & white‑sand beaches
Shifts warm gold, peach and pale cyan sunset reflections
GTA VI logo printed in warm metallic gold
Palm‑tree emboss stands out more visibly against the light‑coloured grip

No physical hardware difference between the two; only cosmetic shell & finish changes.

If you're already set on diving into Vice City day one, this pad is a nice-to-have, not a must-have. Does the $10 premium buy you anything in the game? Not really. It runs about $10 more than a standard DualSense, and every cent of that markup goes to design and collectible value. The guts match any other modern controller. For fans who'd rather wait in style, the September 10 pre-order window is the moment to lock one in.
