August 6 and August 27 are the key dates Sony set for its latest PlayStation accessories, with the FlexStrike fight stick launching worldwide first and the 27-inch gaming monitor following in the U.S. and Japan.
June 12 preorders open for the $199.99 FlexStrike, while the $349.99 monitor goes on sale from June 5; Sony said both will be sold through PlayStation Direct where available, alongside other retailers.
FlexStrike is built for PS5 and PC with a rechargeable battery and carry case, while the QHD IPS monitor supports VRR, up to 120Hz on PS5 and PS5 Pro, and up to 240Hz on compatible PCs and Macs.
Later in 2026, Sony plans to release Pulse Elevate wireless speakers, positioning them as a companion to the monitor as it pushes gaming setups beyond the living room.
