Mash X at the Station: London Tube flashes PS5 icons ahead of launch
Wed 18 Nov 2020Ahead of Sony’s PS5 launch in the UK tomorrow, the signs around Oxford Circus subway station have lit up with a sight to grab every gamer’s eye. Your friendly combo-mash aid — the controller’s button icons.
PlayStation UK cheered the display on as a “PS5 upgrade” to the London Underground signs a coin-toss away from the company’s HQ on Great Marlborough Street.
The 48 hours marketing stunt will also brighten the walls of the Tube station rebranded with PlayStation shapes throughout.
In a nod to its world-popular games, the teams has also temporarily renamed four stations with Mile End station now proclaimed Miles End, from Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales, Lancaster Gate is now Ratchet and Clankaster Gate, Seven Sisters takes on Gran Turismo 7 Sisters, and West Ham transformed to Horizon Forbidden West Ham.
