Dbrand has lifted the lid off its much anticipated Darkplates 2.0 for PS5 Slim and there’s a lot more differences than we anticipated.
For this initial run, they’re just being launched in black, and instead of the four plates that Sony released, Dbrand has stuck with the two plate design, which does make the Slim look a lot more like the original PS5 (although Slimmer).
You can buy the plates in either a Disc or Digital format, and there’s also cut-outs for where the vents are which Dbrand says improves cooling.
Probably the most interesting part of Dbrand’s PS5 plates is the fact that you can buy a stand that looks a lot like the original PS5 stand that came with the console. This has magnets in it (that will only work with these plates), and this solves the major issue that I had with the original PS5 stand and should stop it slip sliding everywhere.
The PS5 Darkplates 2.0 for the PS5 Slim can be had for $59.95 USD (~$89 AUD) and an extra $10 USD for the stand (~$15 AUD) if you’re buying them together otherwise the stand is $14.95 USD (~$22 AUD) standalone . You can buy them HERE.
