“Sony’s Midnight Black DualSense Edge Lands in India – The Ultimate PS5 Controller Just Got Sleeker!”
Sony is stepping up its game—literally—by bringing the Midnight Black DualSense Edge Wireless Controller to Indian shores. If you’ve been waiting for a stylish, premium gaming upgrade, this sleek, jet-black beauty might be just what your PlayStation 5 setup needs.
Priced at ₹18,990, the Midnight Black DualSense Edge is now available at select retailers, though it hasn’t made its grand entrance on major e-commerce sites just yet. But with its high-end features and premium design, this new controller is set to make waves in the gaming community.
What’s New?
If you’re wondering what’s different about the Midnight Black version, let’s be real—it’s mostly about the aesthetics. Sony has taken its high-performance DualSense Edge Wireless Controller, given it a striking all-black makeover, and bundled it with a matching Midnight Black carrying case. While the standard white version was already a premium pick, this darker edition is a perfect match for gamers who love an all-black setup.
The DualSense Edge Difference
For those unfamiliar with the DualSense Edge, it’s Sony’s pro-level controller designed for serious PlayStation gamers. Unlike the standard DualSense, this advanced gamepad allows for customizable controls, swappable stick caps, and adjustable triggers, offering a personalized gaming experience.
Key features include:
- Ultra-customizable controls – Remap buttons and tweak settings to fit your playstyle.
- Interchangeable stick caps and back buttons – Optimize grip and comfort.
- Adjustable trigger lengths – Perfect for FPS games where reaction time is everything.
- USB braided cable with lockable connector – Ensures stable connections for competitive gaming.
- Enhanced software settings – Save custom profiles for different games.
While it carries a higher price tag compared to the standard DualSense controller (₹5,990 – ₹6,490), the Edge is targeted at competitive players who demand precision, durability, and customization.
Availability & Pricing in India
Sony has confirmed that the Midnight Black DualSense Edge is available across participating retailers in India, but online listings are still catching up. If you’re eager to grab one, checking Sony’s official ‘Shop at SC’ website or visiting authorized PlayStation retailers is your best bet.
Interestingly, while the Midnight Black DualSense Edge is priced at ₹18,990, the white version is available on Amazon and Flipkart for ₹17,429—so if you don’t mind the original color, you might snag a deal.
The Midnight Black Collection: More Than Just a Controller
- Sony’s Midnight Black Collection doesn’t stop at the DualSense Edge. The lineup also includes the:
- Pulse Elite Wireless Headset
- Pulse Explore Wireless Earbuds
- PlayStation Portal (Remote Player)
While these accessories are already available in global markets, India has so far only received the Midnight Black DualSense Edge and the PlayStation Portal. Hopefully, Sony will bring the full collection to Indian gamers soon.
