If you were ever inclined to own a LGBTQ themed PS4, now would be about the time to invest. WebHallen, a Swedish online retailer, has put up a ‘Gaystation’ Edition of the PS4, complete with a rainbow themed paint job to support the Swedish LGBTQ-rights organization RFSL.
WebHallen’s also released an accompanying message about the Gaystation. “To a lot of youths, gaming is a helping hand to escape from abuse or worse in the real world. We at Webhallen are gamers in our hearts and souls, wanting everyone to be apart of the worlds fastest growing hobby, computer and video games.”
For those interested, the PS4 is a standard 500GB console that comes with four games. The auction runs until August 3rd, and is currently at 17,100 Swedish Krona - the equivalent of about $2,500.
