Gran Turismo 7 DualSense Launches Today: Where to Buy

Did you forget that Gran Turismo 7 was still a thing? Well, it is—and to prove it, Sony has just launched a Limited Edition GT7 DualSense controller. Why now, four years after the game came out? Because other big games had more popular licenses first, and because it's also marking 30 years of the iconic racing sim franchise. So if you're a longtime fan, this might be your chance to grab a piece of history.

The Limited Edition DualSense is available pretty much wherever you'd normally buy a PS5 controller. But don't let its niche appeal fool you—Gran Turismo has a quiet but cult-like following, so this one could be more popular than you think. The design isn't as flashy as some other special editions, but it's got plenty of character and a signature pop of color that fans will appreciate. It looks a bit like a standard white DualSense with some racing-themed stickers slapped on, which fits the game's vibe of collecting motoring history in polished digital rooms. There's an almost retro, nostalgic charm to it, perfect for celebrating the franchise's 30th anniversary.

In the US, you can pre-order from PlayStation Direct for $84, Best Buy for $84.99, or Target for $84.99 (though Target doesn't offer collection options). Walmart, Amazon, and GameStop aren't stocking it yet, but keep an eye out—they often join DualSense launches later. Stock seems plentiful, so no mad rush. In the UK, it's already available: PlayStation Direct, Argos, Very, Currys, and Smyths Toys all have it for £74.99. Currys even offers store collection. Amazon hasn't joined yet, which is typical—its stock usually drops after the first batch of retailers. If you're waiting for Prime free delivery, fair enough, but if not, you can grab one now while stock lasts.

So, is it worth pre-ordering? Like every limited edition PS5 controller, there are two sides. On one hand, it's a celebration of a franchise you may love, especially if you remember the original GT games on the first PlayStation. On the other, it's a cosmetic collectible that costs more than a regular colorway, and you won't gain any practical benefits. If you want more specs and features, third-party licensed controllers offer better value. And for sim racing fans, a proper racing wheel will enhance the experience far more than a stock gamepad. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but honestly, the GT7 colorway is a bit plain compared to other DualSense designs—though it's clearly aimed at long-time Gran Turismo fans. If that's you, start your engines.
