How can I get the 30th Anniversary PS5 and PS5 Pro?
All of these items are extremely limited. However, none are more limited than the 30th Anniversary PS5 Pro. There will only be 12,300 units of the 30th Anniversary Playstation 5 Pro Console avaliable. Each will have limited edition numbers etched onto the unit. These numbers represent the month and date of the first PlayStation console launch.

Pre-orders not through PlayStation will start on October 10.

What's in the PS5 Pro 30th Anniversary Limited Edition Bundle?
Naturally most of the attention is on the super limited 30th Anniversary PS5 Pro. This will come in a special Limited Edition Bundle.
Here's what the bundle contains:
- limited edition PS5 Pro console with 2TB SSD, Wi-Fi 7 in territories supporting this standard, and matching limited edition accessories – DualSense wireless controller, DualSense Edge wireless controller, DualSense Charging Station, and a Console Cover for a Disc Drive (Disc Drive sold separately).
- It also includes a Vertical Stand and special collector’s Items:
- Original PlayStation controller-style cable connector housing
- Four PlayStation Shapes cable ties
- PlayStation sticker
- Limited Edition PlayStation Poster (1 of 30 possible designs)
- PlayStation Paperclip
The controller-style cable replicates the design of the original PlayStation controller, resembling the old connector. What nostalgia!
However, competition will be intensely fierce for this collection. If you miss out on the PS5 Pro, you can get most of these items through the Digital Edition Bundle instead. So, if your heart is set on a PlayStation 30th Anniversary Paperclip all your eggs aren't in one basket.
