Sony is raising prices again, this time hiking the cost of standard PS5 DualSense controllers by $5. Effective now, the PS5 black and white standard DualSense controllers start at $75 (up from $70), while all the rest jumped from $75 to $80. The DualSense Edge is unaffected and still goes for $200.

Sony made no official announcement about the DualSense price hike, but it seems to have gone into effect recently. Wario64 was among the first to spot the price increase, which is in effect at Sony's own PlayStation Direct store and a variety of retailers, including Best Buy. As usual, there are always deals to be had, as Antonline via Amazon still has the standard black and white controllers for $70, but there is no telling how long those prices will last.

The price hike on DualSense controllers comes not long after Sony raised PS5 prices in Japan and other parts of the world (but not the US).
