Pre-orders are now accepted at the Cerevo Official Store at a price of USD1,299. All units will be packaged in a protector case with individual serial numbers and the estimated shipping date is April 2024.

Utilizing the same design, materials and functions, it features a grip made from natural rosewood with a polished finish. The Public Safety Bureau mark above the grip is crafted from aluminum and decorated with a synthetic ruby that gives it a texture similar to a high quality accessory.
Cerevo’s DOMINATOR is a smart toy and fully transformable from Parallelizer to Eliminator modes. The original was discontinued in 2019 due to difficulties in sourcing the necessary parts. However, due to the continuous requests from PSYCHO-PASS fans all over the world, Cerevo has decided to reproduce the model by modifying the internal mechanism and release a new version to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the broadcast debut of the anime “PSYCHO-PASS”.
The differences from the previous model are as follows –

About DOMINATOR Functions
Cerevo’s DOMINATOR has been created under the supervision of Production I.G director Naoyoshi Shiotani and Nitroplus designer Makoto Ishiwata. DOMINATOR features characteristics identical to the devices seen in PSYCHO-PASS such as automatic transformation, voiceover and sound effects, authentic LED lighting, touch sensor activation, Crime Coefficient analysis and more.
Automatic Transformation Between Paralyzer and Eliminator Mode
Equipped with a special geared motor customized for this product, Cerevo’s DOMINATOR can automatically transform between Paralyzer and Eliminator modes according to a target’s Crime Coefficient score. Cerevo’s DOMINATOR is the world’s first smart toy to commercialize an electrically‐powered deformation mechanism.
Crime Coefficient Analysis and Transformations
When DOMINATOR is aimed at a target, it will automatically analyze and readout the target’s Crime Coefficient score. Connecting a smartphone will allow DOMINATOR to capture and stream an image from its built-in camera to the companion smartphone app and overlay Crime Coefficient data on the target image*. Just like the one on PSYCHO-PASS, Cerevo’s DOMINATOR transforms to Eliminator mode based on the target’s Crime Coefficient score and is able to capture and save the images with the target’s Crime Coefficient score to the companion smartphone app.
Camera images mounted on the DOMINATOR can be viewed from the DOMINATOR App.
*The “Crime Coefficient” displays a different value for each person to whom the DOMINATOR is pointed at. The “crime coefficient” is a term used in PSYCHO-PASS and is a fictional word.
Official Voiceover by Noriko Hidaka
DOMINATOR features over 100 exclusive voice samples from Noriko Hidaka who plays the Dominator voiceover for PSYCHO-PASS. Cerevo’s DOMINATOR can automatically playback voice-overs depending on the situation, such as grasping the grip, detecting an authorized person and more. Cerevo’s DOMINATOR has a built-in speaker for voiceover and sound effects and can also playback sound via a connected smartphone’s speakers.
*There are 71 types of voices that can be played in sound test mode. *The DOMINATOR app will be compatible with iOS/Android in Spring 2024.
Grip Touch Sensor and over 200 LEDs
Cerevo’s DOMINATOR has a built-in touch sensor on the left and right hand sides of grip, enabling detection when held in either hand. Just like in PSYCHO-PASS you can register your DOMINATOR to activate when holding the grip or lock out unauthorized users. DOMINATOR’s body has a total of 217 full color, high brightness LEDs, the LEDs have authentic lighting patterns to replicate Paralyzer, Eliminator or charging modes.
