The PS5 has been revealed to come in a sleek white design with matching white Dualshock controllers. There will be two different versions of the system as well, one regular and the other being called the "Digital Edition." The latter is reportedly set to come with no disc drive and will operate only digitally, while the regular version will come with a disk drive.

The system can also be placed sideways while being used as well. While it is still unclear whether the system will be coming in an alternate black colorway as well, it does sport a jet black finish down the middle. The Dualshock controllers also look to come with enhanced sensors, a built-in microphone along with headphone jack, and more sensitive gripping and button pads.
