Naughty Dog art director John Sweeney shared some information on the custom PS4 Pro in a message to fans:
When we first revealed The Last of Us Part II, we had no idea how quickly fans would embrace Ellie’s tattoo. Within a day, we started seeing real-life versions showing up on social media and fans have been sharing photos of their new tattoos with us week after week ever since.
When the opportunity arose to create a custom PS4 Pro for The Last of Us Part II, I worked with our graphic designer at the time, Angel Garcia, and we considered a few different ideas, but we kept coming back to Ellie’s tattoo. By that point, it had become a symbol of the game and for the community–much like the Firefly logo in the first game. It was the clear choice, but we wondered: what if it could be engraved? It hadn’t been done before, so we weren’t sure it was even possible, but thanks to the incredible efforts of the teams at PlayStation, we found a way.
The result is something we feel is really special–a design that honors the passion of our incredible fans and that we ourselves would be proud to own.
We can’t wait for you to see it in person and for you to experience The Last of Us Part II for yourselves!

The bundle is a nice deal considering it includes the game and the cool controller at no extra cost. Still hard to believe that Sony is selling PS4 hardware at $400 mere months before the PS5 launch.
Looks horrible. The spiderman and the basic white models looks better. Sony needs to look at Cyberpunk Xbox one X edition.
Don't really like it, but it is good to have it available.
