Sony’s best PS5 controller has received a huge discount for Black Friday, along with the normal version and the Astro Bot special edition.
The PlayStation 5 might be five years old but it’s still an expensive piece of kit, having increased in price several times during this console generation.
As such, the Black Friday discounts on Sony’s machine have been a lifeline this Christmas, with up to £140 off. While the consoles themselves are pricey enough, the cost only inflates when you factor in additional controllers and other accessories.
Thankfully, there’s also some deals on PlayStation 5 controllers for Black Friday and if you’re a gaming enthusiast, the high-end DualSense Edge controller is cheaper than it’s ever been.
The DualSense Edge controller, which comes with swappable stick caps, replaceable sticks, and other customisation features, is currently £149.99 at Amazon, which is £50 off the usual price. This same deal, which is £20 cheaper than Sony’s discounted price, is available at Argos too.
Along with boasting adjustable triggers, the DualSense Edge comes with a carrying case and the ability to save remapped button configurations within the controller itself.
