You Can Now Pre-Order New Black And Red PS5 DualSense Controllers
When Sony first revealed the sci-fi-inspired design of the PlayStation 5, its future owners split into two camps: those who loved the minimalist black-and-white color scheme and sleek curves, and those who wished Microsoft was in charge of the console’s design. Regardless of which of the two camps you belong to, you can now make your PlayStation 5 a bit more exciting by pre-ordering two new DualSense controllers — Midnight Black and Cosmic Red.
Well, the controllers are functionally identical to the standard PS5 DualSense controller, but their colors are different. The Midnight Black controller features two subtly different shades of black with light grey, while the Cosmic Red controller offers a striking black and red that should remind you of the shades of red found throughout the cosmos.
Here’s what these hot new Midnight Black and Cosmic Red DualSense controllers will look like:

Where To Pre-Order The New DualSense Controllers?
According to Sony, the two new DualSense controllers will be available at participating retailers globally starting next month for $69.99, with the exact date varying from location to location.
If you would like to avoid waiting in line and possibly leaving with empty hands (and who wouldn’t with the novel coronavirus pandemic still stretching the capacity of hospitals in many countries around the world), you can pre-order the controllers online at:
If you would like to receive your new DualSense controller as soon as possible, then pre-ordering it from PlayStation Direct is your best option since it ships approximately a week ahead of other retailers, on June 11th.
With the release of the new color schemes, PlayStation 5 owners finally get to enjoy additional customization options beyond Dbrand’s Darkplates and other third-party accessories, making it easier for them to ensure that their video gaming console matches their personal style.

Google Releases Veo 2 AI Video Tool To MENA Users
The state-of-the-art video generation model is now available in Gemini, offering realistic AI-generated videos with better physics, motion, and detail.
Starting today, users of Gemini Advanced in the MENA region — and globally — can tap into Veo 2, Google’s next-generation video model.
Originally unveiled in 2024, Veo 2 has now been fully integrated into Gemini, supporting multiple languages including Arabic and English. The rollout now brings Google’s most advanced video AI directly into the hands of everyday users.
Veo 2 builds on the foundations of its predecessor with a more sophisticated understanding of the physical world. It’s designed to produce high-fidelity video content with cinematic detail, realistic motion, and greater visual consistency across a wide range of subjects and styles. Whether recreating natural landscapes, human interactions, or stylized environments, the model is capable of interpreting and translating written prompts into eight-second 720p videos that feel almost handcrafted.
Users can generate content directly through the Gemini platform — either via the web or mobile apps. The experience is pretty straightforward: users enter a text-based prompt, and Veo 2 returns a video in 16:9 landscape format, delivered as an MP4 file. These aren’t just generic clips — they can reflect creative, abstract, or highly specific scenarios, making the tool especially useful for content creators, marketers, or anyone experimenting with visual storytelling.

To ensure transparency, each video is embedded with SynthID — a digital watermark developed by Google’s DeepMind. The watermark is invisible to the human eye but persists across editing, compression, and sharing. It identifies the video as AI-generated, addressing concerns around misinformation and media authenticity.
While Veo 2 is still in its early phases of public rollout, the technology is part of a broader push by Google to democratize advanced AI tools. With text-to-image, code generation, and now video creation integrated into Gemini, Google is positioning the platform as a full-spectrum creative assistant.
Access to Veo 2 starts today and will continue expanding in the coming weeks. Interested users can try it out at gemini.google.com or through the Gemini app on Android and iOS.
