6:01am EST / 11:01am BST: Amazon UK has sold out of pre-orders for the 30th anniversary DualSense, but stock is moving on and off the shelves so it’s best to keep an eye on it. Still, Very appears to be making some moves with its own listing page, though it’s not yet available to add to cart and the details seem a bit off.
Pre-order the 30th Anniversary Controller
While Sony may be making its first forays into the UK, this is one of the few accessories available at other retailers today, so to avoid the queues, check out these stores:
United States: Check on Amazon
UK: Check it out on Amazon
If you’re thinking of pre-ordering a PlayStation 30th anniversary controller, you should actually skip Sony – while the retailer is sticking to its queue system, other UK retailers are already moving forward.
Amazon was the first to jump on board, but their pre-order listing for the DualSense went out of stock (it was out of stock for about 45 minutes). We recommend keeping an eye on that page, though; stock comes and goes, so a few refreshes might get you in the next wave. Very also seems to be up to something, having launched its own landing page; however, the page currently features an image of the Edge controller, and it’s not available to add to cart.
Pre-orders aren’t available in the US yet, but I’m sure they will be soon. I expect various retailers to jump into action once the US wakes up, and the same will be true in the UK. There doesn’t seem to be a set time for these listings to start, so stores will likely start stocking shelves in waves over the course of a day.
If your Sony pre-order is out of stock or you’re waiting for a cheaper shipping price, I encourage you to get in touch. I’ll be scouring the web all day for the latest pre-order listings so you can get your hands on your anniversary DualSense without the headache of restocking.
Of course, this isn’t the only PlayStation 30th anniversary pre-order available today: plenty of retro-style gadgets will hit store shelves in the next 24 hours, as well as full PS5 Pro pre-orders.
