<p>PlayStation has unveiled a limited edition Astro Bot DualSense controller for the PlayStation 5, and it launches September 6, the same day developer Team Asobi’s <a href=”https://www.gameinformer.com/product/astro-bot”>Astro Bot</a> launches. Preorders begin on Friday, August 9, at 7 a.m PT/10 a.m. ET in the U.S. and the controller will cost $79.99. </p>

<p>”The controller’s design features Astro’s signature blue accents on the handles and buttons, carved in, sci-fi lines as well as the trademark playful pair of eyes on the touch pad,” a PlayStation Blog <a href=”https://blog.playstation.com/2024/07/29/first-look-astro-bot-limited-edition-dualsense-wireless-controller/”>post</a> reads. </p>
