The next generation of consoles is here and not only does that spell a new generation of games, but a new generation of fan made designs to truly make their new console a unique product. While there are some impressive decals that fans can buy right now, seeing a fan put the time into a passionate project is just as welcome.
One Reddit user, whattheefth, posted to the PlayStation subreddit, a series of pictures showing off their impressive PlayStation 2 themed PlayStation 5 in order to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the PlayStation brand. While this may be a mock-up and not an actual reskinned PlayStation 5, this is an interesting look at the concepts fans can come up with just like the Mortal Kombat 11 PlayStation 5 fan design that was shown off earlier this year.
The attention to detail in this design is an impressive feat with subtle tweaks that manage to celebrate the PlayStation 2 while maintaining the unique design of the PlayStation 5. The sleek, black contrasted with the colorful PlayStation logo look like something Sony would actually release, if even as a limited edition design. Even a mockup of the PlayStation 5’s beloved DualSense controller makes an appearance complete with the vibrant face buttons of controllers from PlayStation past.
Plenty of fan made console mockups focus on a single game like these cool CyberPunk2077 and Horizon: Forbidden West console designs, but seeing a design celebrate the history of the console itself is a different affair that if real, could appeal to a larger audience than one that appeals to a specific fan base. In any case, the attention to detail and care is palpable in these mockups and it’s a bit saddening to realize that they are simply mockups and not available at a retail level.
At a little over a month into its life, its heartwarming to see how much fans are already loving their PlayStation 5, which was Sony’s biggest console launch ever despite all the stock shortages. One thing is clear, the fans that have been lucky enough to get their hands on a PlayStation 5 have a lot of praise for Sony’s newest console.
The PlayStation 5 has a lot of games in store for the upcoming year with titles like Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart, Resident Evil 8, and Hogwarts Legacy on the horizon, so there is tons of potential for more fan mockups in the future. In any case, it will be interesting to see what the fans come up with.
The PlayStation 5 is available now.
