Sony Invites Public to Play Insane, Massive PS5 Pinball Machine

Pinballing

PlayStation’s marketing team has pulled off some memorable stunts in the past, but this latest promotion might actually take the cake. On Friday and Saturday of this week, just hours before the Champions League final takes place, Sony’s inviting people to test their skills with a massive PS5-themed pinball machine. Claim the high score and you’ll win tickets to the aforementioned footie final between Borussia Dortmund and Real Madrid. Not a bad prize…

You can find the gigantic pinball attraction in London’s Trafalgar Square, and at this point, it’s probably worth mentioning that the Champions League match is also happening in London, at Wembley Stadium. So thankfully, if you do win those tickets, you won’t have to worry about booking an immediate flight out of the country.

The machine itself looks fantastic. Again, it’s PS5-themed, so you’ve got the colour scheme, an amazing Astro model — with moving eyes — and a bunch of references to various PlayStation Studios games, including Gran Turismo and God of War. The whole thing is operated via a DualSense controller, too.
