Those lucky enough to own a PlayStation 5 may be enjoying the short load times and improved visuals of the new system, but some players already want to change the faceplates of the console. Fortunately, the tech company dbrand will have them covered come 2021, announcing that swappable PS5 faceplates will begin to be sold next year.

Known for its custom phone, laptop, and console skins, dbrand is preparing to expand its catalog with “OEM-grade faceplates” for the PlayStation 5. With the company’s custom plates “entering mass production by year’s end,” players will be able to snag one of the custom faceplates come 2021. The matte black design should be enticing to those that do not like the PlayStation 5’s base white color scheme, and it is the latest attempt by a third-party company to sell custom PS5 faceplates.

Intriguingly, dbrand directly challenges Sony to make an attempt to sue in the post announcing the faceplates. This is a bold move on the part of the skin provider, as Sony has already threatened faceplate makers with legal action in the past. However, dbrand seems confident that Sony will not be able to sue, as it doubles down in the comments and once again “encourage [Sony] to try.” For players interested in buying a faceplate, keeping an eye on the legal situation may be worthwhile.

Another comical part of the post sees dbrand taking a shot at CD Projekt RED. Poking fun at Cyberpunk 2077’s messy launch, the company’s statement includes the quote “if CD Projekt RED has taught us anything, it's that selling products before they're finished is a bad idea.” One of the many lines in the post to get a laugh out of Redditors, the clever post also included references to the issues caused by COVID-19 in 2020 as well as the infamous PS5 scalpers — all of which led to plenty of comments praising dbrand’s social media manager.

In a reply to a commenter’s question regarding more color variety in faceplates going forward, dbrand replies with “perhaps.” The company then goes on to mention that there will be a “curated array of middle skins for customization” as well as skin options for the PS5’s DualSense controller. If players are planning to customize the center of their PS5 console or controller, dbrand will have more options available alongside the faceplates next year.

While it is unclear if Sony will attempt to sue dbrand, people have been quick to notice that there are no PlayStation logos seen anywhere on the plates — something that would make a legal case challenging. If Sony does not take dbrand to court, it seems like players will have an easier time customizing PlayStation 5 consoles in 2021.

The PlayStation 5 is available now.
