How much does a PS4 controller cost?

The standard 'Jet Black' model can drop as low as $25 - $30 / £25 - £30 in sales events, but is usually found closer to $49.99 / £49.99. In general, other colors follow this suit, but the more premium limited or special edition designs can reach into the $70 / £70 price range.
Is a cheap PS4 controller still worth it?
Even though many have taken the leap to the PS5 now, cheap PS4 controllers still have their place on your shelf. PS4 controllers will still work with previous-gen titles running on PS5 so having a spare handy will come in useful for older multiplayer games as well. You can also use a PS4 controller for PS5 Remote Play on your phone, tablet, or laptop as well.
