PlayStation is celebrating the 30th anniversary of its original console with a new limited-edition collection of PS5 consoles and accessories.
In honor of this milestone, PlayStation is unveiling a special edition of the PS5 Pro console and accessories, showcasing nostalgic design features and a classic color scheme reminiscent of the first PlayStation console.
But that’s not all—PlayStation has made these limited-edition consoles even more unique. Each PS5 Pro in this collection will have an individual number, marking it as a collector’s item. Only 12,300 units will be available.
How to Get the 30th Anniversary PlayStation
Sony has launched a retro-themed PS5 console and accessory collection to mark this 30th anniversary. Pre-orders for the 30th Anniversary PlayStation Pro began on Thursday, September 26, at 7 a.m. Arizona time, and they sold out in seconds, according to IGN.com.
As expected, many of these consoles have already appeared on resale sites like eBay, with scalpers listing them at much higher prices than the original $999.99 retail price.

The 30th anniversary edition of the PS5 Pro doesn’t just pay tribute to the original console—it also comes bundled with several exclusive items:
- Limited edition PS5 Pro console

Pre-ordering the Regular PS5 Pro
If you’re looking to buy the standard version of the PS5 Pro, you’ll need $699.99. Pre-orders can be placed through PlayStation Direct, where you’ll need to enter your PlayStation Network details. Once you’re in the online queue, you’ll be given a chance to pre-order when selected.
While PlayStation Direct offers the first opportunity to pre-order, major retailers like Target, Walmart, Best Buy, and Amazon will open their pre-orders on October 10.
Is the PS5 Pro Sold Out?
The 30th anniversary PS5 Pro edition sold out instantly, but the standard PS5 Pro is still available. You can pre-order through the PlayStation website or wait until October 10, when other retailers start taking orders.
