It sports a blend of rich blue shades across the grips and lower shell, giving it a layered, premium look.

PS5 Icon Blue DualSense Controller Features

While the special edition sports a fresh look, it retains all the familiar DualSense features – including haptic feedback, adaptive triggers, motion controls, a built-in microphone, and a USB-C port. It also includes a 3.5mm headphone jack and works seamlessly across PS5 consoles, PCs, and supported mobile devices.

The launch of the Icon Blue edition ties in with PlayStation’s ongoing 30th-anniversary celebrations, which began in early September. Sony hasn’t yet confirmed whether the new controller will expand to other markets like India, but given the popularity of past colour variants, a wider release seems likely.

This addition joins Sony’s growing range of DualSense colours, which already includes Starlight Blue, Galactic Purple, Midnight Black, and several limited-edition models inspired by major PS5 game releases.
