The products on this list are based on extensive research from hands-on experience. Our reviewer has been lucky enough to be supplied with the major launch accessories for this console. Just to be extra thorough, we've also included the Amazon star ratings as a secondary vouch of quality.
Ordinarily this slot in the article would be reserved for a third-party product that excels over whatever standard controller comes packed-in with the PlayStation. That being said, there's just no beating the premium feel and features set of the DualSense, a controller that enjoys a 4.7 /5 star rating (after 757 Amazon reviews).
Sony has created something truly game-changing here, thanks to adaptive force feedback L2 and R2 triggers, not to mention a new level of immersion that's delivered through your fingertips via superior haptics technology. Honestly, this one is going to be tough for peripherals manufacturers to improve upon.
In no time flat you're going to need a storage solution like Seagate's Official Licensed 2TB HDD, a product with a 4.8 /5 star rating (after 14,000+ Amazon reviews). Though it says 1TB on the side of your PlayStation 5 box, you'll soon discover that's closer to 800GB of usable space.
Second of all, the PS5 is very big on PS4 backwards compatibility, not to mention a generous PlayStation Plus program that will hand you free digitally acquired games that can be 40-50GB apiece. Seagate offers a high-speed and sveltely designed solution to all of this here.

You'll get the most out of your PS5's next-generation sound processing tech with Razer's BlackShark V2 Gaming Headset, a product that enjoys a 4.3 /5 star Amazon rating (after 88 reviews). In layman's terms: the PS5's Tempest Engine is effectively a dedicated sound processing chip that drives 3D audio. A quality set of cans like the BlackShark will offer you a new level of dimensionality from hundreds of in-game sound sources.
Even better, the build quality of these is second to none. The earpads are made of an especially comfy memory foam covered in layers of mesh fabric.
If you want to harness the full potential of the amazing graphics horsepower of a PS5 console, you'll need to buy one of the new HDMI 2.1 enabled TVs. Sony's X9000H is such a product, and it comes with a 4.5 /5 star rating (after 1,000+ Amazon reviews).
Being a 4K Full Array LED with a respectably low input lag of 7ms, the X9000H will let you have the mind-blowing experience of playing video games at 4K / 120FPS. Better yet, it comes with two HDMI 2.1 ports, so if you're lucky enough to own a PlayStation 5 and an Xbox Series X you'll not need to hotswap them all the time.
If you're after an impressive sounding and smart soundbar, the Sonos Beam comes with a 4.6 /5 star rating (after 110 Amazon reviews). Not only is this unit small enough to comfortably attach itself to the majority of TVs, it's packed with neat innovations and delivers remarkable audio performance.
The Beam's innards consist of four full-range drivers, three passive radiators that enhance your bass, plus a centre tweeter. Something to note: while this is a three-channel system, a convincing surround sound effect can be achieved via Sonos's Trueplay software.
Though it's very much an optional purchase, the PlayStation 5 Media Remote comes highly recommended with a 4.6 /5 star rating (after 112 Amazon reviews). It's worth getting purely for the fact that using a DualSense to navigate media isn't ideal (accidentally bumping a controller will cause rewinds and chapter skips aplenty).
Along with the expected playback and navigational buttons, you're getting dedicated launch buttons for Disney+, Netflix, Spotify and YouTube. Better yet, you can quickly adjust your TV volume and power settings with the built-in IR transmitter.
Though it's been out on the market since 2015, Logitech's G29 is still a best in class wheel that boasts a 4.9 /5 star Amazon rating. It supports PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, PC and has been confirmed to be fully functional with PS5 as well.
Featuring quality construction, easy to access "face buttons" and dual-motor force feedback, the G29 is the best way to simulate driving. Especially when you're playing a game that supports this wheel's 900-degree lock-to-lock rotation and the added immersion of PSVR.
