Sony has revealed two limited-edition Grand Theft Auto VI DualSense wireless controllers, unveiled during the September 3 State of Play. Split into a Black Limited Edition and a White Limited Edition, both pull the look of Vice City, the fictional heart of Leonida, straight onto the hardware ahead of the game's November 19 release.
Each controller carries a shimmering, color-shifting finish that blends the warm tones of a Vice City sunset with the glow of neon, so the surface reads differently depending on the light. Custom palm tree details are molded directly into the body, adding a tactile texture that sits alongside official Grand Theft Auto VI branding. It is a finish built to move rather than sit flat, which suits a setting defined equally by sun-soaked coastline and after-dark energy.
From there, the two editions pull in opposite directions. The White Limited Edition leans into Vice City at daybreak, drawing on white sand, pastel skies and a laid-back sense of glamour. The Black Limited Edition takes the other half of the day, channeling the charge of the city's nightlife into a darker treatment. Together they function as a matched day-and-night pair rather than two versions of the same idea.
Beyond the surface, these remain full-featured DualSense units. In Grand Theft Auto VI, the controller's haptic feedback and adaptive triggers respond to the on-screen action with dynamic resistance, pushing the sights, sounds and physical sensations of the game into the player's hands. That functional layer is central to how Sony has positioned the tie-in, framing the controllers as part of the argument that the game plays best on PS5 when it lands November 19.
The White edition will be offered in limited quantities globally through PlayStation and participating retailers, while the Black edition runs exclusively through PlayStation where available, reaching other regions via select retailers.
Both limited-edition DualSense controllers launch November 19, with pre-orders opening September 10 at 10:00 a.m. local time via PlayStation in limited quantities.
