Watch: PS5 Unboxing on Burj Al Arab

PlayStation Arabia host Abdulkareem gives you an exclusive glimpse of their future generation console that launched in the Middle East on November 19th, 2020.

As a part of their Play Has No Limits Campaign, PlayStation Arabia took over the iconic Burj Al Arab helipad to showcase the first official unboxing of PlayStation 5 in the Middle East.

“I am super excited to present this 1-hour PlayStation Arabia broadcast packed with special guests, the first official unboxing of PlayStation 5 in the Middle East, hands-on gameplay reactions, and everything you need to know about PlayStation 5”- Abdulkareem PS5 Unboxing on Burj Al Arab. 

Abdulkareem starts off the video with a brief lowdown of the PS5: the most notable feature he mentions is PS5’s new DualSense Wireless controller which offers immersive haptic feedback, dynamic adaptive triggers and a built-in microphone, all integrated into an iconic design. 

After describing the PS5’s new features, Abdulkareem begins welcoming special guests to the broadcast:

The first guest segment is a zoom-call with Bahrain-based Hakam Karim [known online as Hakoom] – a Guiness World Record holder and PlayStation’s Number 1 trophy hunter. Karim shares his journey as a professional gamer and how he became a successful trophey hunter. Karim and Abdulkareem also discuss how backwards compatability works on the PS5. 

After finishing his segment with Karim, Abdulkareem introduces social media influencer Ahmed AL Nasheet – who gives his first impressions on the PS5’s hardware and dual sense feature. 

Faisal AlSaif from Tech Pills, Mohammed Albisimi from True Gaming, Ahmed Alkayadi from VGA4A, and Khalid Al-Mutari from Gamer Snack are then brought on for a virtual discussion where they further pick apart the game console’s hardware. 

The most notable guests are Global Beauty entrepreneur Huda Kattan [@hudabeauty] and her gamer daughter Nour – who participate in the PS5 official unboxing. Both were very excited to be part of this iconic moment in PlayStation Arabia’s history.Â
