Sony has released a new promotional video featuring BLACKPINK star LISA as its collaboration with the singer approaches the launch of a limited-edition PlayStation DualSense controller.

The latest campaign takes LISA into a futuristic lift, with PlayStation imagery and glimpses of games appearing as the video moves between floors. The short film puts the singer and her specially designed controller at the centre of Sony’s latest crossover between gaming, music and fashion.

A PlayStation controller designed with LISA

The DualSense wireless controller – LISA Limited Edition features a Chroma Pearl finish, with artwork inspired by the singer’s signature bangs and eyes on the touch pad. Stars and ‘LL’ lettering complete the design.

According to PlayStation, the controller launches on 30 October 2026 in limited quantities through PlayStation and participating retailers worldwide, with a recommended UK price of £74.99. Pre-orders opened on 2 October.

More than a controller

The partnership also includes a collection of merchandise, from clothing and accessories to a DualSense carrying case. Sony’s published merchandise details are primarily for the US market, and its 2 October update warned of delays to the US PlayStation Direct merchandise assortment. UK availability of those additional items should not be assumed. The campaign builds on LISA’s appearance in PlayStation’s global PS5 campaign in 2025.

For Sony, the new video is another example of PlayStation reaching beyond traditional gaming audiences through music and pop culture. For fans of LISA, it offers another look at a collaboration that has been developed with her own visual style in mind.
