Even Apple now sells PlayStation 5 accessories
Apple has included the PlayStation 5 DualSense controller in the webshop. But there is a twist.
The PlayStation 5 DualSense controller works with multiple devices, not just the console itself. You can also play games with it on an iOS device or an Apple TV via a Bluetooth connection. There you immediately have the statement from Apple to now also start selling the controller itself. The twist is that the controller is currently only sold in the American webshop. We could not find the controller in the Dutch digital Apple Store.
Apple sells the PlayStation 5 DualSense controller for the suggested retail price. Americans can only purchase the PS5 accessory digitally. Pick up in an Apple store is not yet available. Unlike the console itself, PlayStation 5 accessories are readily available everywhere. Within Apple Arcade you can find thousands of games that support a controller.
Whether Americans would do well to buy the PlayStation 5 DualSense controller from Apple is still the question. While Apple uses the suggested retail price, there are plenty of budget fighters that offer the controller with a sharper price tag. Consider, for example, the Amazon webshop. It is not known whether the controller will ever be sold via Apple in the Netherlands.
