PS5 accessories worth buying
By the Seven Seas Dawn team · 14 October 2026
Most PS5 owners need only a few extras. These are the ones that change how you play, in the order we would buy them.
A second controller and somewhere to charge it
A second DualSense means you can play with a friend, or swap when the battery runs low. A charging station keeps both topped up without using the console’s ports.
A headset
The PULSE Elite uses planar magnetic drivers and connects to PS5 with PlayStation Link for low delay. Wired headsets plug straight into the DualSense and work with any console.
PlayStation Portal and PS VR2
PlayStation Portal streams games from your PS5 to an 8-inch screen over home Wi-Fi, useful when someone else needs the TV. PS VR2 is Sony’s virtual reality headset for PS5, with eye tracking and 4K HDR OLED displays.
