BEING a world-renowned musician does not stop Lisa from enjoying one of her pastimes, which is gaming. That’s why she decided to partner with gaming giant Sony’s PlayStation to bring a new cosmetic to the DualSense Controller, making her presence known more in the gaming world.
This is not the first time that Lisa and PlayStation have worked together, as the K-pop star joined last year for the PS5’s global campaign. This time, however, both parties worked together further by introducing the Lisa Limited Edition DualSense controller.
As a global icon herself, she has iconic figures that fans would know about, especially her ‘dynamic stage presence and her bold approach to fashion.’ With that in mind, PlayStation made sure that her controller skin looks just as glamorous and iconic as the BlackPink member.
The controller uses her favorite color-the Chroma Pearl colorway. The design, meanwhile, is straight up a reference to Lisa, as it includes her iconic bangs and eyes in the DualSense wireless touchpad. Her signature ‘LL’ is also written in the controller.
‘Gaming is something I do whenever I have time to relax, so getting to create this collection with PlayStation was very exciting. I had a lot of fun adding in little details that I knew my fans would notice, and I wanted the fans to have something they can connect with. I’ve always loved expressing myself through music and fashion, so this collaboration gave me a new way to be creative and show a different side of myself. I hope everyone enjoys it as much as I do,’ said Lisa in the PlayStation blog post.
In Southeast Asia, participating retailers would have this in highly limited stock by October 30, as pre-orders for the controller would start by October 2. For the Philippines, the suggested retail price is P5,411.
