The well-known Wario64 account has posted through X that several North American stores increased the price of the peripheral this past Sunday. Chains like Best Buy, Target, and Sony’s own store have quietly raised the price of the DualSense by $5.

Unlike previous generations, Sony has been increasing prices over time on several products. An excellent example is the new edition of the PS5 Digital, which also increased by $50 in the United States (from $399.99 to $449.99). However, the increase came with improved storage, from 825 GB of SSD to 1 TB.

Does this increase affect us? Unfortunately, yes. In Spain, the official price of the DualSense was around 69.99 euros. Currently, Sony offers it in their official store for 74.99 euros, reflecting an increase of almost 5 euros.
