I have black plates on my ps5 currently. Gonna snag the purple ones when they come out. Brings me back to the GameCube days

 

[DevilMayFlyForAWhiteGuy]

Normally, I would say Red or Blue, but I don’t really like the shade they used for either. In this case I’d go Purple or Black.

 

[kyliethicc]

That black DualSense looks great tho.

 

[Esppiral]

White is the best color.

 

[ParaSeoul]

I like purple a lot but I need it black

 

[Outlier]

The reverse oreo! I love the contrast between the light and dark.

Yes I know the uniformity of the black on black with highlights seems nice, but it's just boring to me.

 

[Lone Wolf]

Black is best. I don’t want this console to stick out like it does with the white and the black really helps with that.

 

[West Texas CEO]

I like the purple;

 

[Ridaxan]

I'm grabbing Starlight Blue and Nova Pink controllers and plates definitely.

 

[Calling 911 Melts Beams]

if you need a console that works youll want a white one

 

[skit_data]

I prefer the white plates.

I’d like to have plates that change the original shape instead of just the colors, in that case I’d go with black ones. I always think of Saurons tower Barad Dur when I see the black ”original”-shape sideplates.

[recursive]

White. I am not paying $55 for that shit.

 

[zeorhymer]

No green? Fail.

 

[prinz_valium]

Black > Purple > white > anything else.
Black on black is the only good looking design

 

[sloppyjoe_gamer]

Honestly i really like the white. If i do get one of the other colors, it will be black or red.

 

[kyliethicc]

Purple!

[MacReady13]

I pre ordered the black cover and the purple controller. Once purple cover becomes available I'll grab that as well.

 

[Ailynn]

It's too bad you can't choose a color shell and custom lights- I would choose black with lots of purple lights everywhere, which is my favorite look for nearly any sci-fi armor.

 

[cinnamonandgravy]

just release the slim version alreadyyyy

 

[GHG]

Purple!

Wait... You're trying to tell me after all this time DJ Khaled stole from Prince of all people?

What a fraud.

Prince is the OG, baby!

 

[Nikana]

I like that Purple a lot.

Red is my fav color and I wouldn't call that PS5 "red." Looks weird.

Darkplates 2.0 » PS5 Faceplates » dbrand

We don't know what you were looking for, but you found it. dbrand's Darkplates 2.0 are available for a limited time only. Don't miss your shot.

Darkplates have custom lightstrips and colors

 

[RoadHazard]

White or black. I really like them both, but white fits better in my living room, so I'm probably keeping it that way.

All the other colors are way too garish, the only one I could MAYBE consider is the red.

 

[FrankWza]

Besides some kind of themed cool edition for a Sony game, I’d like to see the same color gunmetal as the MGS4 PS3 console and controller they released. It was a really nice color.

 

[kyliethicc]

Wonder how Sony will handle the Spider-man PS5, cause we know its coming in 2023. Will it be just covers or a full console bundle?

They’ll do both and make the plates design different to separate the 2. Maybe different main colors. Blue on red vs red on blue

 

[Susurrus]

I really like the purple one, but I just can't justify $55 for it. Maybe some day I'll cave but for the time being, I'm fine w/ the default. After all, my PS4 is white so a white PS5 was a natural replacement on my shelf.

I doubt they'll do both. Defeats the purpose of the bundle if you can just buy the plates, or vice versa.

Also, wouldn't shock me if they actually go for a black & white Spidey Venom theme. Can't just be the same as last time.

 

[RCU005]

What I like the most is that this is just Sony opening the floodgates of having so many design possibilities with many games and special editions. The real question is:

Will Sony release Special Edition PS5s as covers also or will they limit them to people who get the console?

Still, I hope many companies release different designs from their games and whatnot!

 

[FrankWza]

I doubt they'll do both. Defeats the purpose of the bundle if you can just buy the plates, or vice versa.

You think so? I think it gives everyone an opportunity to have a Spider-Man edition and doesn’t alienate early adopters who want to theme theirs with spidey. If they’re different, at least the actual bundle buyers get something to show they have the bundle.

Yeah I'm not sure. Who knows what Sony will do.

 

[TLZ]

I like the Blue.

I wish they made a Lime color.

 

[dem]

They all look like dildo colors

Says a lot more about you than the PS5, Tony.

 

[Draugoth]

The one that suits your living room.

 

[Haggard]

By itself, black.
Together with the rest of my home cinema equipment, white.

 

[K' Dash]

whatever color they use for the slim version, the only way that monstrosity looks good is hidden behind my TV.

 

[teezzy]

Purple!

 

[Simpkin92]

Black looks best by far, then purple. What’s crazy is white is one of the worst and yet that’s what they released with.

edit:spelling

I'd love a Venom face plate.

 

[Calverz]

I got the red controller and its more pink tbh. All the colours are shite apart from black.

 

[DeepEnigma]

I have a feeling they will bundle the plates like this in the console, and you will only get them via the console bundle.

 

[Putonahappyface]

I reckon they'll release them individually twelve months later after they sell them as a bundle.

Comic red looks more like a beetroot colour to me, certainly not like the picture in the advert.

 

[Md Ray]

The color that's not in here. Grey.
