Sony is sharing new details about some of its upcoming gaming-focused hardware, including pricing and August launch dates for its FlexStrike fight stick and its 27-inch monitor.
The FlexStrike fight stick will be available starting August 6th — the same day as the new PlayStation-published fighting game Marvel Tōkon: Fighting Souls — and will cost $199.99. Preorders begin on June 12th at 10AM ET. Initially, the FlexStrike will work just on PS5, but Sony says that PC support will be rolled out sometime after launch. The stick will come with a sling carry case and a built-in rechargeable battery.
Sony goes into more detail about the fight stick in a new video:
Sony’s new 27-inch PlayStation-branded gaming monitor launches on August 27th and will cost $349.99, with preorders starting on June 5th at 10AM ET. The monitor has a 2560 x 1440 IPS display with VRR, and Sony says it supports up to 120Hz with the PS5 and PS5 Pro and up to 240Hz with compatible PCs or Macs. The monitor has a dedicated hook that can pop out from the back of the monitor to charge a DualSense controller, too — looks super handy.
The company also says that its Pulse Elevate wireless speakers, announced last September, will launch “later this year.” Sony hasn’t given a price, but says that it will have more to share “soon.”
