Fortnite Fans Gear Up for the Limited Edition DualSense Controller Launch

Fans of Fortnite have something to look forward to with the announcement of the new Limited Edition DualSense controller. This exciting addition was unveiled during the recent State of Play livestream, and it’s set to capture the essence of the popular game. Pre-orders for the DualSense Wireless Controller - Fortnite Limited Edition are just around the edge, premiering in under a fortnight.

The controller boasts a vibrant blue hue, closely resembling the existing Starlight Blue variant, but it has been enhanced with a range of graffiti-style designs. Notable features include a bold Fortnite logo and the phrase "Where we droppin'?" printed on the touch surface, making it immediately identifiable>

Two small illustrations inspired by beloved Fortnite characters are also part of the design. One depicts the iconic guppy character Fishstick, while the other features the humanoid banana known as Peely. Additionally, fans will spot "GG" markings alongside a playful drawing of a victory crown.

Overall, this limited edition is quite appealing, although it does not fully achieve the same level of imaginative prowess of the Astro Bot Limited Edition DualSense, which seamlessly weaves its character's elements throughout the design.

Only a limited number of these controllers will be produced, with a price tag set at $84.99 / £74.99. This is notably higher than the previous standard DualSense price of $79.99 / £64.99, especially following its recent increase. Pre-orders begin on October 3 and will be available through PS Direct as well as select retailers.

Given Fortnite's immense popularity, it wouldn't be surprising if this limited edition sells out quickly. It’s wise to bookmark relevant retailers in your area to ensure a successful pre-order experience.
