An eagerly anticipated collaboration between Sony and HoYoverse has culminated in the reveal of a stunning new limited-edition Genshin Impact DualSense controller for PlayStation 5. This bespoke peripheral, designed to commemorate the fifth anniversary of the massively popular live-service RPG, is set to open for preorders on December 11 at 7 AM PT / 10 AM ET, priced at $85. Gaming enthusiasts and Travelers alike are poised to secure this unique piece of gaming hardware, which launches just days after the significant Genshin Impact Version Luna III update.

Aesthetic Masterpiece: Genshin Impact's Iconic Design Comes to DualSense

Crafted through a close partnership with Genshin Impact developer HoYoverse, this special DualSense controller is a true homage to the game's ethereal aesthetic. It boasts an exquisite blend of white, gold, and green hues, intricately adorned with arcane glyphs familiar to fans of Teyvat. Prominently featured are emblems of the iconic Traveler Twins, Aether and Lumine, alongside a charming graphic depiction of their ever-present companion, Paimon. This design promises to immerse players deeper into the world of Genshin Impact with every touch.

Genshin Impact Version Luna III: A New Era Begins

The timing of this controller's availability aligns perfectly with a major content drop for the game itself. Genshin Impact's Version Luna III update is scheduled to go live on December 3, introducing a wealth of new characters, quests, and fresh content. A significant gameplay enhancement arriving with Luna III is the introduction of Hexerei passives, which will empower and buff certain characters, promising to shake up combat strategies and character builds for dedicated players.
