Black versus white
Sony's announcement describes two GTA VI DualSense designs: white inspired by Vice City's daytime look, and black inspired by its nightlife.
| Model | Announced distribution |
|---|---|
| White Limited Edition | PlayStation Direct and participating retailers |
| Black Limited Edition | PlayStation Direct where available; selected retailers in other regions |
Both use a shifting finish, molded palm details and GTA VI branding. Choose a design and verify the seller serving your country; a retailer listing elsewhere is not a guarantee of local delivery.

Where to check in Canada and Europe
Use PlayStation Canada's controller page for its limited-edition information and local shopping destinations. A Canadian-dollar recommended price was not established in the official pages reviewed here; we do not substitute a converted US price.
In the UK and European markets served by PlayStation Direct, select the relevant country. For other countries, follow local PlayStation buying information rather than assuming the black controller is universally restricted to Direct.
A controller is a separate purchase
This guide concerns hardware designs, not a game bundle. Read the item listing before buying and do not assume that a themed controller includes GTA VI.
For game editions see our preorder comparison. For another physical collectible, see the Vice City Collection guide.
