PS5 has custom faceplates

Recommended Posts

I didn't know about this when the console was announced, but it looks like the PS5 will have the option for using custom faceplates. As well, it looks like a third party company has already produced and released custom faceplates. Would you buy any custom faceplates for your PS5? The faceplates are currently going for $39.99.

Bad news, it looks like Sony has blocked this site from selling anymore of these PS5 faceplates. Supposedly they did not get licensing and all that to be able to sell these face plates in the first place. Once they do though, they can potentially sell these fine. This company had to cancel all the orders and refund all buyers.

They also had to change their site, Which I figured would happen eventually with it being so close to the PlayStation name. Their new site can be found below:

I kind of disagree with Sony on this. These guys should be able to produce 3rd party peripherals for the console, including face plates. Does each 3rd party company have to get licencing and all that to product devices for said consoles? I always was under the impression that 3rd party companies could make their own peripherals as long as it doesn't use the same exact parts and designs.
