No, they're all glossy. You can buy a backplate for cheap and paint it yourself though

I was tired of this too so I took an extremely worn backplate (peeling paint/scratches) and painted with with some nice matte black paint. I got massively downvoted/bullied for it though hahaha

Here's a photo of the end result. The screws were broken off by the previous owner and you can see my scratch free original backplates in the background, so no harm was done 😂

You could get a clear case on Ebay for about 10 dollars and it’s easier than finding a backplate. It’s also will help preserve the console bc your special edition could be worth a lot of you care about that.
