PlayStation 5 Marathon Edition DualSense Controller Discounted on AliExpress

Sony's annual Days of Play Event is offering various discounts on PlayStation DualSense controllers. Among the discounted items is the Marathon Edition DualSense controller.

While most retailers are selling the Marathon DualSense controller for $64 after a $20 instant discount, Newegg's official AliExpress storefront is offering it for $54.05 with free shipping. This price is over $10 less than other retailers and is exclusive to the AliExpress platform, not being available on Newegg's primary website.

The Marathon limited edition controller features a futuristic design, incorporating highlighter neon green accents, informational text, and fractured decals. This aesthetic is designed to complement the theme of the associated game.

The DualSense controller maintains the design and layout of previous PlayStation controllers while integrating modern features. These include haptic feedback, adaptive triggers, a built-in microphone and speaker, an integrated touchpad, and internal gyroscope and accelerometer for motion sensing. It supports USB Type-C charging.

Beyond the PlayStation 5, the DualSense controller can also be connected to a PC via a USB Type-C cable or Bluetooth wireless. PC game clients like Steam offer support for the DualSense's haptic feedback and adaptive triggers, enhancing the PC gaming experience.

The sale for this controller is anticipated to end soon, potentially as early as tomorrow, or sooner if inventory is depleted.

According to IGN, the DualSense is often considered a top PS5 controller under $100 and an effective PC controller. (Source: IGN)
