So, you know the DualSense controller? That, but Kratos. Or, in other words, take a white DualSense, put a big red stripe down one side and some nice red buttons. Thatâs all they have done really, and that makes it very annoying that I love it and want one.
âIn honor of God of Warâs 20thâŻanniversary this year, we were thrilled by the opportunity to celebrate this milestone with a new DualSense controller design,â said Associate Art Director Dela Longfish from Santa Monica Studio.
âWhen we were deciding how best to embody the series, we immediately thought the form of the controller lent itself perfectly to Kratosâ omega tattoo. No matter which God of War game youâre playing, theâŻshape of his red ink against the gray of his ash-covered skinâŻis one of the most iconic elements of Kratosâ look across both Greek and Norse sagas.âŻOur team made sure to represent both of these key tones in the color selection for the controller to make every aspect an authentic homage to the design that has defined Kratos for over two decades.âŻâ
âWe hope fans enjoy the controller and canât thank everyone enough for all of the support youâve shown Santa Monica Studio over the years!â
The God of War 20th Anniversary Limited Edition DualSense will be available in limited quantities for a eyebrow raising recommended retail price of $84.99 / âŹ84.99 / ÂŁ74.99 / „12,480. Pre-orders start on October 3, 2025 at 10am local time at direct.playstation.com (for U.K., France, Germany, Austria, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Netherlands, Belgium, and Luxembourg) as well as participating retailers globally.
Thereâs still a couple of months left in the year so maybe we will get something else to celebrate God of Warâs 20th birthday. Maybe a look at that highly rumoured next game set in Egypt? Maybe? Please? Go on Sony.
This looks like an exciting addition for fans of God of War! The design sounds intriguing, and it’s great to see the franchise celebrated in such a creative way. Perfect for collectors and gamers alike!
great to see such attention to detail in the controller. The unique color scheme really captures the essence of Kratos and the series. Plus, the enhanced features of the DualSense will likely make the gaming experience even more immersive!
