Overview

  • Sony announced that two first‑party accessories will be available this August and that a third will arrive later in 2026, with pre‑orders opening in June through PlayStation Direct and major retailers.
  • The FlexStrike wireless fight stick is positioned for competitive and portable play on PS5 and PC, includes a built‑in rechargeable battery and sling carry case, and carries a U.S. price of $199.99.
  • The official 27‑inch Gaming Monitor features a QHD IPS panel with VRR, supports up to 120Hz on PS5/PS5 Pro and up to 240Hz on compatible PCs and Macs, includes a DualSense charging hook, and is priced at $349.99 in the U.S.
  • Sony confirmed retail distribution through PlayStation Direct and Best Buy in target markets and said pre‑orders for the monitor and fight stick will open in early and mid‑June respectively.
  • The roll‑out signals PlayStation’s push to serve desktop setups and tournament play, which could broaden where and how people play while creating marketing tie‑ins with fighting games and prompting rivals to update their accessory strategies.
