Sony and Polyphony Digital are celebrating the Gran Turismo franchise’s 30th anniversary with a new limited-edition PS5 DualSense controller. The commemorative gamepad was revealed alongside the launch of the first installment of Gran Turismo 7’s Spec IV update.
Inspired by motorsports and racecars, the Gran Turismo controller has a mostly white body paired with a carbon-fiber-textured front plate. The touchpad receives a pair of black racing stripes, along with graphics of warning stickers and hood clips.
The left grip features the Gran Turismo wordmark, a ‘30’ racing roundel representing three decades of history, and a wreath celebrating the 100 million unit sales milestone the franchise achieved in 2025. The right grip features the Gran Turismo Association’s emblem, as well as the iconic ‘The Drive of Your Life’ slogan from Gran Turismo 4.

“Thirty years ago, Gran Turismo began with a vision to share the beauty and joy of the automobile,” shared Polyphony Digital CEO Kazunori Yamauchi. “This commemorative controller celebrates the journey we have shared together, and I am deeply grateful to everyone whose passion continues to inspire us.”
Preorders for the limited-edition Gran Turismo PS5 DualSense wireless controller open next week, October 22 for $84.99, or around P5,360. Preorders will only be available in select regions, which does not include the Philippines. More details on local availability will likely become available closer to the controller’s global launch on December 10.
In the meantime, Gran Turismo 7 players can enjoy part one of the Spec IV update starting today. Six new cars were added—the Xiaomi Vision Gran Turismo, the Ferrari F335 Berlinetta, the Honda Civic Si Group A, the Mazda RX-Vision GT3 Evo, the Honda Step WGN Spada Premium Line, and the Citroën 2 CV 6 Charleston—along with the Sportsland Sugo circuit.
