[Yoshichan]

There we fucking go

looks delicious, away from the blue I’m tired of seeing

 

[NYR]

If it’s not broke, don’t fix it! Looks great!

 

[DunDunDunpachi]

tbh I wish they changed the case-color again (the plastic) but this looks slick..

 

[Enjay]

Really pushing the shit out of that Morales name. Will Cardi B cameo?

 

[Bitmap Frogs]

Bit boring. IMHO.

 

[SentientStone]

Wish they made the blue slightly darker on the plastic box.

 

[Soleil rouge]

The white makes it look incomplete.

 

[Fake]

Looks OK. The others fanmade are better IMO, but nothing wrong with those.

 

[Gavin Stevens]

I like it, it’s classy, but the blue case is really contrasting it all. The case should have been clear or black IMO

Still, seeing as Xbox will likely do nothing new in this area, I can’t complain.

 

[Cyborg]

Looks good! Love it

 

[Breakage]

It would have been better if they went with white cases. But I guess they had to represent PlayStation's signature blue in some form.

 

[Echelon]

I wish they had put the PS logo on the right side of the header.

 

[OutRun88]

Everything about it screams generic.

 

[MrS]

omg so good

 

[GHG]

The white looks fucking awful.

Not that I care to be honest since I'm going all digital next gen.

 

[SEGA_2012]

Looks terrible.

 

[Barlow]

Nah not even "ok"

 

[SilentUser]

It looks good. I think a different colour for the case (like white) would be better, but it's good nonetheless.

 

[Valentino]

Loooooove it. I was worried because I love the PS4 box colours. And as simple and basic as the Spider Man cover is, I'm actually okay they've been consistent and made Mile Morales cover generally the same.

 

[GenericUser]

I hate white on electronics.

 

[Matt_Fox]

Who'd take my bet that this is the last gen where we'll get boxed games...

 

[Matsuchezz]

Looks ok. It really does not matter to me that much. i Rather see better art on the covers. Sometimes it is just a render.

 

[sobaka770]

It's all right, deferent enough from previous ones, similar design.

I assume my purchases will be 80% digital with maybe some collectors thrown in though so I don't really care how it looks.

 

[Xtib81]

I don't like it, but I couldn't care less about what ps5 cases look like.

 

[Northeastmonk]

I really like black. I can adjust to anything. I’m mostly digital too.

 

[JOEVIAL]

I like it. Of course they went with white It's been a very clear branding style across all PS5 products, so that's good.

Knowing XBOX Series X cases won't be much different than XBOX One kinda bums me out but we may see a new case design in a year or two. Series X games will be dual branded with "XBOX One Compatible" or some other malarky on there. Which makes me realize most Series X cover arts will be busy with all sorts of text and garbage:

"4k! 60FPS! XBOX One Compatible! *some features may not be compatible with XBOX One series of devices*"

 

[iorek21]

Should've been a white case tho

 

[Danjin44]

I guess this trend of boring ass cover arts is going to continue in western games.

 

[Jack Peterson]

Looks fine

 

[MiguelItUp]

To me, it's hard to ignore that the blue case reminds me of PS4. So it looks like a fan made PS5 sleeve in a PS4 box.

 

[Zoro7]

Imagine actually caring what the box of a game looks like.

 

[Birdo]

The white branding is very Wii.

 

[Tangerine]

Not a fan to be honest. Oh well...

 

[Birdo]

Imagine actually caring what the box of a game looks like.

Imagine not caring so much that you clicked on a thread called "Box art for upcoming PS5 games"

 

[Bolivar687]

The white strip makes it look like a kid printed this at home and they just ran out of toner.

 

[Psykodad]

Looks ugly af with the blue boxes. Should've went black.

 

[Bojanglez]

Artwork looks great, but really needs a transparent, white or black case.

 

[O-N-E]

If they're gonna stick with that white, they should've used clear cases like PS3.

 

[New Yorks Finest]

Gorgeous with a white finish, looks hella clean.

Luv it !!!

 

[Bartski]

white black and blue, what a surprise

 

[MisterBrimstone]

Guys the box art is supposed to be bland as fuck because they want to sell you the steel cool one.

 

[dorkimoe]

The white makes it look incomplete.

well it is an expansion


(im joking dont ban me)

 

[Daffy Duck]

Looks pretty cool.

 

[Airbus Jr]

White console, white controlller, white box art

Incoming complains by Resetera complaining the PS5 is racist or affiliated with white supremacist

 

[thicc_girls_are_teh_best]

It's extremely boring compared to the likes of these. I know gaming's more mainstream and big business these days but companies actually put some care into their game packaging back in the day.

They looked finished, for starters.

 

[the_master]

This white looks weak and lame. Also tiring.

 

[TyphoonStruggle]

White console, white controlller, white box art

Incoming complains by Resetera complaining the PS5 is racist or affiliated with white supremacist

Bruh

 

[Endless Fluff]

tbh I wish they changed the case-color again (the plastic) but this looks slick..

They should have made the cases white or black, to keep the theme of the console and peripherals.

 

[Birdo]

Would look better with clear cases:
