The Founder of BlinkIt, Albinder Dhindsa, recently announced a collaboration between the platform and Sony as he posted a picture of the PS5 Slim crossover with BlinkIt itself. Fast forward to later this week, PS5 Slim is officially available on the platform alongside the PS5 DualSense wireless controller. At the moment, interested gamers who usually visit BlinkIt for their daily household needs can also purchase the Sony console after the collaboration. While BlinkIt harbors a variety of electronic products, it is the first time a console is available on the platform.

PS5 Slim Alongside the DualSense Wireless Controller Available in Blinkit
At the moment, buyers can find both the Digital and Disc Edition of the PS5 Slim on BlinkIt. The Sony PS5 Slim Digital Edition can be purchased for Rs. 44,990 on the platform, while the PS5 Slim Disc version is up for Rs. 54,990. On the other hand, Sony's DualSense Wireless Controller can be purchased for Rs. 5,899.
For now, these are all the PlayStation 5 products available on BlinkIt, as the list does not include any extra accessories for the console. Gamers who are waiting for the PS5 game bundles may also have to wait before they land on the platform.
What Else Can Fans Expect from PS5 Slim on BlinkIt?
The pre-orders for the PlayStation 5 Slim have already begun in India, with the console available at retailers like ShopatSC. However, purchasing from BlinkIt will deliver the console to the buyer's doorstep in about 10 minutes. Although BlinkIt services are not available to a lot of regions in the country, the founder has mentioned that they are tirelessly working to expand their services soon. Until then, fans must wait before they can purchase Sony's console from the Zomato platform.
The PlayStation 5 Slim is a much lighter variant of the initial Sony console released in 2020. Carrying the same specifications except for a slightly bigger storage size, the PS5 Slim Digital and Disc edition comes with a powerful CPU and GPU to run current-gen titles at 60 or more frames per second (FPS).
With the lack of Sony or PlayStation 5 accessories on BlinkIt, gamers purchasing the PS5 Slim Digital edition may not get the separate slim disc from the same platform; however, consumers are expecting the platform to introduce more console items to their collection. Until then, gamers can enjoy the two consoles and a DualSense Controller.
