Alpine Green PS4 Dualshock Controller Officially Revealed
Just a few days ago Microsoft unveiled their brand new Phantom White Special Edition controller for the Xbox One and fans are absolutely loving it. It makes sense then, that Sony show off a dapper looking controller then too, right? Earlier today Sony revealed their newest addition to the Dualshock 4 family as the Alpine Green PS4 controller though it seems some fans are less than thrilled about it.
The upcoming controller was announced on the official PlayStation Twitter account, showing off a green and white Dualshock 4. The entire front of it, save for the buttons and surrounding markings, is an alpine green, as the name suggests, however the buttons and the back of the controller are a bold white. You can check it out in the tweet below.
