Sony’s dropping another limited edition controller on us this week and Lisa DualSense pre-orders are dropping across the web right now. Stock goes live at 10am local time, which means the UK is starting to see retailers online while the US has just a few more hours to wait.
The $84 / £74.99 special release seems to have been modelled off the Chroma Peal model, with that iridescent sheen kept intact on a bright white base. The Blackpink member’s stamp has been firmly set upon the touchpad, though, and continues all the way through the main grips. It’s an understated limited edition, but one K-pop fans are going to be all over.
So far, we’ve seen stock emerging from a range of retailers in the UK so it looks as if this one isn’t a PS Direct exclusive. I’d still head to Sony first of all, it’s likely to be one of the first retailers to drop Lisa DualSense pre-orders in the US later today, but there are likely other options waiting in the wings as well.
Lisa DualSense pre-orders in the US
PS Direct | ‘Coming Soon’
PS Direct already has the Lisa Limited Edition listed among its DualSense controllers, so this is where you’ll need to be when that 10am window rolls around.
Amazon | Check stock
Amazon was a little later to GTA 6 DualSense stock when the limited edition controller hit the shelves last month, but it usually appears with speedy shipping and is an excellent one to have on the back burner.
Walmart | Check stock
Walmart is one of the faster stores off the mark when high-end pre-orders roll around so I’d keep this one on the refresh as we get closer to that launch time.
Best Buy | Check stock
Best Buy is often one of the first retailers to take these kinds of pre-orders live, and can include in-store collection to boot.
GameStop | Check stock
GameStop is another one to watch today, though just watch out for longer shipping times.
Lisa DualSense pre-orders in the UK
PS Direct | In stock
Go straight to the source and you’ll find Lisa DualSense pre-orders live and ready to go – just note you’ll need to sign in with your PlayStation account to get through checkout.
Smyths Toys | In stock
Smyths Toys has been pretty speedy recently and you’ll now find Lisa DualSense pre-orders on the shelves here. Don’t want to wait on release day? There’s also click & collect available.
Amazon | Check stock
Keep an eye on Amazon today as it regularly drops these limited edition pre-orders, but be warned they’re not always listed on the same page as the rest of the DualSense family.
EE | Check stock
EE has been a dark horse in the pre-order race for the last year, and held onto tough-to-find GTA releases last month. Keep this one in the back pocket if others run out of stock.
Currys | Check stock
Currys has a sturdy selection of DualSense controllers on its shelves, and Lisa could well join them if other retailers are getting a look in today.
When is the Lisa DualSense release date?
The limited edition Lisa DualSense will launch on October 30, so there’s not long to wait for your themed gamepad.
Will the Lisa DualSense run out of stock?
Without a crystal ball, I’d say it’s pretty unlikely the Lisa DualSense will run out of stock in either the US or UK. This is a big release for fans, but the appeal isn’t nearly as widespread as the GTA 6 gamepad that launched last month, and that one’s still firmly on the shelves today. If you want to wait until release, there’s little indication these will be difficult to get your hands on at the time of writing.
Is the Lisa DualSense a PS Direct exclusive?
At the moment, it doesn’t appear so. UK Lisa DualSense pre-orders dropped earlier today and, while other retailers aren’t showing too many signs of life, Smyths Toys has stock on the shelves ready to go. That means this could be a smaller drop, shared between PS Direct and one or two other stores, but it’s not exactly an exclusive.
You’ll still find plenty of GTA 6 DualSense pre-orders on the shelves, but we’re also getting you prepped for all this year’s Black Friday PS5 deals across the best PS5 accessories as well.
