For players who love hardware industrial design, transparent casings have always held an irresistible magic. Remember the classic transparent handheld consoles and gaming peripherals that sparked a craze back in the day? Now, Sony has officially brought this highly futuristic tech aesthetic to contemporary next-gen consoles, announcing the launch of new PS5 and DualSense wireless controller modification accessories—the “Chroma Collection.”
PlayStation is set to launch the Prism series DualSense wireless controllers and PS5 console covers.
This time, the Guangleng series introduces three translucent main colorways with strong visual impact: bold and avant-garde “Flare Orange,” elegant and deep “Emerald Green,” and crisp and refined “Graphite Gray.” The brand has not only broken away from its existing monochrome, matte, understated style, but also applied a premium glossy coating to the accessory surfaces, so that when light passes through and reflects, it reveals a refined, satin-like sheen.
The Light Prism series was born from the PlayStation design team’s attempt at “deconstructive aesthetics.” Previously, players could only imagine the console’s intricate internal construction through its closed shell; the Light Prism series serves as a visual bridge, allowing players to get a close-up glimpse of the complex neuron vibration motors and haptic feedback structure inside the DualSense controller, as well as the geometric line aesthetics inside the PS5 console.
PlayStation Color, Material, and Finish (CMF) design team leads Leo Cardoso and Satoshi Aoyagi said the team went through countless tests while tuning light transmittance and surface texture:
- Flare Orange: Infuses a grounded esports desktop space with ultra-high-saturation energy, while its light-transmission effect feels lively and futuristic.
- Emerald Green: A gem-like satin sheen that refracts layers of understated luxury from different angles of light.
- Graphite Gray: Embracing a minimalist industrial style, it cleverly combines understated dark tones with a high-tech transparent feel, delivering an unparalleled refined quality.
Whether displayed in the living room or a dedicated gaming room, this all-new accessory set is sure to be a stunning desktop centerpiece.
The all-new “Prism Series” will roll out across global markets. Players looking to give their PS5 and controllers a new look should keep an eye on the following prices and release schedule:
- DualSense Wireless Controller (Chroma Collection): suggested retail price is NT$2,720.
- PS5 Console Covers (Prism Series): Will be released in limited quantities through designated retail channels, with a suggested retail price of NT$2,380.
The 光稜 Series is expected to officially launch progressively starting February 4, 2027 (actual release dates and stock availability for each colorway will be subject to retailer announcements in each country and region). Whether you’re a visually oriented player pursuing the ultimate desk setup aesthetic or a hardware enthusiast with zero resistance to transparent geek aesthetics, this 光稜 Series is definitely one of the most unmissable PS5 accessory upgrades recently.
