Sony announced a new 27-inch monitor for the PlayStation 5 targeting console gamers who prefer playing on a desk. The monitor features a 2,560 x 1,440 resolution, supports HDR with automatic HDR tone mapping during setup, and variable refresh rates of up to 120Hz when connected to the PS5 or PS5 Pro, or up to 240Hz when connected to a Mac or PC.

Connectivity includes two HDMI ports and a single DisplayPort port to accommodate a computer, a USB-C and two USB-A ports for accessories like the PlayStation Link wireless headphone adapter, and a 3.5mm audio jack for using wired headphones instead of the monitor’s built-in stereo speakers. A unique feature you won’t find on other displays is a hook that flips down from the back of the monitor to hold and charge a PS5 DualSense controller, but it only holds one.

Pricing and specific availability haven’t been announced, but Sony says the PlayStation 27-inch Gaming Monitor with DualSense Charging Hook will launch in the US and Japan sometime in 2026. The company’s last dedicated console monitor debuted in 2011 for the PS3 with a 24-inch panel and 3D capabilities.
