Dopo il colore delle origini e l'elegante argento satinato, il 6 febbraio 2004, Sony Computer Entertainment Europe (SCEE) annunciò la speciale PlayStation 2 Aqua (SCPH-50004 AQ) in edizione limitata. Venne rilasciata solo nei territori PAL (Italia compresa) durante il successivo mese di marzo 2004.
PlayStation 2 Aqua, appartenendo alla serie SCPH-50000, presentava l'ultima versione di chassis, con ricevitore integrato a infrarossi e una ventola più silenziosa. Qui Maggiori Info.
Nella confezione era incluso un controller DUALSHOCK 2 Aqua mentre come di consueto, Sony rilasciò separatamente e in contemporanea altri accessori in tinta, nello specifico il Vertical Stand Aqua a €9.99 e la Memory Card Aqua a €29.99. Anche se limitata, a sorpresa Sony decise di lanciare PlayStation 2 Aqua allo stesso identico prezzo della normale PlayStation 2 che al tempo era fissato a €199.
L'allora Presidente e COO di SCEE, David Reeves, affermò: "Abbiamo introdotto la PlayStation 2 Silver Prestige Line - Satin Silver prima di Natale. Si è rivelata un tale successo che includere un altro colore alla gamma di PlayStation 2 è stata un'azione naturale e questa nuova edizione limitata Aqua è perfetta per giungere in Europa durante la primavera".

Following the success of the limited edition, coloured PlayStation 2 in Summer 2002, SCEE has endeavoured to provide consumers with more choice than ever, making its popular PlayStation 2 now available in Satin Silver, Aqua and original Black. The new Aqua PlayStation 2 will make a sophisticated addition to state of the art home entertainment systems and will complement any modern design-led living room environment.
