Overview
- PlayStation announced the Wolverine limited‑edition PS5 lineup on Tuesday, Aug. 11, and said pre-orders open Aug. 19 at 10:00 a.m. local time with products shipping on Sept. 15 alongside the game.
- The $649.99 bundle includes a PS5 Digital Edition console painted Battle Yellow, a matching DualSense controller and a digital game code while standalone DualSense controllers cost $84.99 and console covers are $74.99.
- Sony will not offer a disc‑drive version of the themed console but will sell cover kits that include parts for consoles with disc drives so existing PS5 Slim and PS5 Pro owners can buy the look separately.
- A metallic “Adamantium” finish will be sold in limited quantities for PS5 Pro covers and a matching controller through PlayStation Direct while the yellow bundle will appear at select retailers.
- The digital‑only bundle renews fan debate over PlayStation’s plan to phase out physical discs starting in 2028 and arrives after recent PlayStation hardware price increases, a combination that could shape consumer reaction and sales.
