PlayStation is soon going to be celebrating its 30-year anniversary, with the first PlayStation having launched 30 years ago, on 3 December 1994. Now, to mark the event, the gaming giant is back with another special edition PS5 console and accessories—the PlayStation 30th Anniversary Collection. Sony states that it has created this collection to pay homage to 30 years of gaming history by choosing a design aesthetic that is reminiscent of the original console, with similar greys and a matching colour palette. That said, availability will be scarce, and only 12,300 PS5 Pro limited edition consoles will be produced.

PlayStation 30th Anniversary Collection: Release Date
Sony says that the special edition PS5 Pro and the PS5 Digital console, along with all the limited edition accessories, will be available starting 21 November. However, as things stand, it could be quite challenging to get hold of the special edition consoles, especially the PS5 Pro. We’ve seen Sony bring out the 20th Anniversary PS4 console, and it too sold out quickly, with units being sold in the grey market for massive premiums.
