Key Takeaways
1. Two out of three Hyperpop controller designs have sold out at the German PlayStation Direct store, with only Rhythm Blue still available for preorder.
2. It is uncertain if there will be future preorder opportunities for sold-out controllers, though Sony has restocked items in the past.
3. The new DualSense controllers for PS5 are available for purchase from selected retailers, starting at $549 on Amazon.
4. All three color options of the Hyperpop series are still available at Sony’s US online shop.

Two of the three Hyperpop controller designs have already sold out at the German PlayStation Direct online store. The only variant still available for preorder is the Rhythm Blue, while the Techno Red and Remix Green options can no longer be placed in the cart. This is quite unusual for a design that isn’t tied to a popular gaming franchise, which is often the case with many special edition controllers.
Future Preorder Possibilities
It remains uncertain if there will be another chance for preorders in areas where items have sold out. However, Sony has occasionally reopened preorders in the past. For instance, the unique 30th Anniversary controller was restocked at the PlayStation Direct store several months later.
Retail Availability
There is still an opportunity to purchase these new DualSense controllers for the PlayStation 5 (starting at $549 on Amazon) from selected retailers, some of which are also carrying this new collection. As of now, all three color options from the Hyperpop series can still be found at Sony’s US online shop.
Console Covers Update
That being said, there may be more limitations when it comes to the console covers. Sony has stated that the corresponding PS5 console covers will be offered in limited amounts in certain markets for $74.99. Currently, these covers are still available at many PlayStation Direct stores.
