Months after his debut, the PS5 the design remains very divisive, and while Sony has already shut down an accessory manufacturer that tried to make replacement panels for the PS5, Dbrand is daring Sony to sue its new matte black PS5 front panels .
Called Darkplates, Dbrand’s new PS5 add-on is not just a sticker you can use to cover the PS5’s white exterior, but are full black plastic replacement panels that adhere to the PS5 using the same slots as Sony used to secure the default target. side covers.
While some people may worry about playing with their new and expensive console, Dbrand jokingly states that “99.98% of humans can install Darkplates successfully,” suggesting that even people normally have fear of modifying them. your gaming console should have no trouble replacing the PS5’s side panels with Dbrand’s dark boards.
But where things get more spicy is all the extra language Dbrand has spread everywhere. Darkplates website virtually begging Sony to file a lawsuit to infringe Sony’s patent and intellectual property (or at least send a termination and termination), a destination found by other accessory manufacturers Customize My Plates last year.

Just below the Darkplates header image, Dbrand even added a line that said “Go ahead, ask us,” while the Dbrand microtext feature on its side panels serves as another punch to Sony, with Dbrand replacing Sony’s circle, triangle, square ix icons with “a familiar but legally different apocalyptic twist to the classic PlayStation button shapes.”
Available for the standard PS5 (with an option for the PS5 Digital Edition “coming soon”), Dbrand’s Darkbrates seems to be exactly what many gamers have been asking for since Sony unveiled the controversial two-tone black and white front PS5. However, they won’t be cheap, as the two matte black side panels plus an average adhesive skin (available in six different patterns) currently cost $ 61 (apparently with a $ 79 discount). This is basically the same price as a game, which could force people can choose between buying a new title for their PS5 or improving its appearance.
But I have to admit that the PS5 looks very black and it looks like I’m not the only one who thinks so, as the first three waves of Dbrand’s Darkplates commands have already run out, with the next available wave expected sometime in May.
However, for anyone who doesn’t really support the PS5’s stock design, you may want to act quickly. DDespite Dbrand’s confident taunts, it’s hard to say how long Darkplates will be available before Sony’s legal team decides to get involved.
