Sony will release the Darth Vader Edition DualShock 4 controller on its own later this month

Until now, gamers would had to wait for the Battlefront Limited Edition PlayStation 4 bundle to release to get their hands on the Darth Vader DualShock 4 controller. Fortunately, Sony has announced the controller will soon be available to purchase on its own:

The Darth Vader Edition DualShock 4 controller is essentially the same as the basic model but with a unique color scheme. As you can see in the images above, it is accented by the white thumbsticks, red touches on the face buttons and D-pad, along with red and blue shoulder buttons.

It looks as though the controller will initially be exclusive to Walmart, but is yet to appear on the site. Sony tweeted to say that the new controller will be “coming to Walmart” in the US starting on November 17th. This is also the same date to expect the Limited Edition Star Wars Battlefront Console bundle to release (which also includes the Vader DS4 as mentioned above). Or just get this Darth Vader PS4 Designer Skin set for $10 Prime shipped.

Some of you may remember when Sony did the same thing with the limited edition Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 console bundle and DualShock 4 controller previously.
