The company will soon be releasing optional colored side plates in blue, silver, and red that can be purchased separately to change the look of the PS5 slim. Sony PS5 Slip new colors The new side plates ditch the two-tone glossy/matte finish of the original white model in favor of a uniform matte texture across all surfaces. The red option especially stands out as a brighter, more vibrant shade than the original PS5's "cosmic red" accessories. Sony says the silver plates are meant to evoke nostalgia for the design of the original PlayStation console from the 90s. The PS5 slim continues Sony's strategy of offering both a standard model with an optical disc drive and a cheaper all-digital version. With over 50 million PS5 units sold worldwide since launch, the new customization options give players even more ways to personalize their console as Sony maintains momentum. But you can purchase the Volcanic Red and Cobalt Blue plates for the original PS5 consoles from PlayStation Direct at this moment, along with the matching DualSense controllers.
