Remember when Sony used to make weird and wonderful commercials? This latest effort from PlayStation Thailand ranks right up there. The focus is on a couple who work as baristas in a coffee shop, but the relationship takes a dark turn when the guy starts behaving unusually. Fortunately, there’s a solution to his woes, and all it revolves around a certain game console.
The advert is pretty amusing, leaning deep into the melodrama to hold your attention throughout its ridiculous three minute running time. This is all part of a wider push from the platform holder to promote the fact that the new-gen system is now readily available around the world. Did you like the commercial? Let us know in the comments section below.

Brilliant, just Brilliant.
i look forward to the next one
Well you know what they say, all work and no play makes jack a dull boy.
Love how this article was posted “Tomorrow 00:00” even though it’s only 10:30 here. Spoooky
hilarious lol
Well it's different?
If Netflix made a full series based on this commercial, I’d watch it.
@ItsBritneyB_tch I'm in too!
Ok. That was pretty funny.
Who need drugs when you have Playstation commercials?
Oscar worthy. My eyes widened for a moment when I thought the guy may have a boxed all black PS5 slim. This video has an E3 video feel for a game reveal, and would be a fun way to see a slim PS5 revealed.
This is how global (looking at you North America) PS commercials should look and feel, and I am more than mildly jealous of the Thai-Sony efforts here. It kept me glued through it's perfect runtime, well done!
Well that was something.
Ha! Loved it! I wish more were like this.
Gotta love PS5 fever.. 2 years after it started.. hilarious commercial
This was amazing 👏 can we please 🙏 have more 🙏
Great advert. That really appeals to me.
You don't get weirder than the old Chris Cunningham deformed head adverts. What was all that about? https://youtu.be/KkbHsa0qing
I checked again and it doesn't on repeat viewing but at first it looked like he said "holy f*ck" when he saw the PS5.
Love it 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Wish they made advertisements like that for our region
Why do the actors in these things always hold and press buttons on the controllers weirdly? Like how they stab at the buttons, don't rest their fingers on the triggers, etc.
N.i.c.e. that commercial was entertaining.word up son
PlayStation has the best marketing team…seems that stretch is world wide. This was brilliant
I wish I had someone that was as excited to see me as these two were to see the PS5
They get romance and cats in their commercials. All we get is Ozzy Osborne. How is PS winning here?
Asia always has the best commercials. What went wrong in the West?
@StrickenBiged Maybe the actors hired are usually people that never played a console game before and have no idea how to hold one. Or because they're used to Switch and their hands are permanently deformed as a result
Another brilliant PlayStation commercial for the history books! Hope they continue this awesomeness! I also thoroughly enjoyed the PSVR2 commercial featuring Ozzy Osbourne & his wife Sharon Osbourne lol I was freaking out when I saw it for the first time a few days ago. PlayStation marketing is definitely doing a good job as of late.
Love it!!! I miss these weird commercials
@NEStalgia My assumption too. You'd have thought that the director or producer would step in and say something.
Well that was totally awesome!
Brilliant bit of marketing that. I wish Sony would give the PSVR2 a promotional push like they are doing with PS5. It is groundbreaking kit but you wouldn’t know it even existed unless you are already heavily invested in all things PlayStation.
Atleast this was better to watch then most of Sony's modern NA PlayStation commercials.
@ItsBritneyB_tch That would definitely make some hilarious entertainment XP.
Wish you be happy!
