Shocking news coming from Sony’s Playstation Community. Sony’s revealed PS5 controller on Playstation blog and the name they gave it is- PS5 DualSense Controller.

PlayStation’s Hideaki Nishino (Senior Vice President, Platform Planning & Management) wrote on the Playstation blog just less than an hour ago and revealed the pictures and some features of the PS5 controller.

He writes, “We’ve reached an exciting milestone with PlayStation 5, as we’re starting to ship our new controller in its final design to developers who are implementing its unique features into their games. But first, we wanted everyone in the Playstation community to get a first look at the DualSense wireless controller, and hear our vision for how the new controller will captivate more of your senses as you interact with the virtual worlds in PS5 games. The features of DualSense, along with PS5’s Tempest 3D AudioTech, will deliver a new feeling of immersion to players.”

This totally indicates that DualSense has a meaning behind and this is what we have to find out. After giving a brief about the history of the Dual Shock 4 controller, he added some of the features of the controller.

PS5 Controller Features

“We adopted haptic feedback, which adds a variety of powerful sensations you’ll feel when you play, such as the slow grittiness of driving a car through the mud. We also incorporated adaptive triggers into the L2 and R2 buttons of DualSense so you can truly feel the tension of your actions, like when drawing a bow to shoot an arrow”, he added.

He also said that they changed the handle of the triggers and made some subtle updates in the grip for a better experience. The battery of the controller is also taken care of by the PS5 team and he explained that the controller has been made keeping the weight of the controller and battery efficiency in mind.

He further informed that the share button of the controller is removed from its place. Here is what he has to explain about it, “For the buttons, you’ll notice there is no longer a “Share” button as we had with DualShock 4. Don’t worry – it’s not going away. In fact, we’ve built upon the success of our industry-first Share button to bring you a new “Create” button feature. With Create, we’re once again pioneering new ways for players to create epic gameplay content to share with the world, or just to enjoy for themselves.”

One nice feature we will see in the DualSense that is a built-in microphone array, which will enable players to easily chat with friends without a headset. However, if you wish to save battery, the advice is to have a headphone handy.

About the design, he wrote that the color and design in the above-mentioned picture will be the base design for all the controllers. However, it looks like there will be some more expensive controllers with different colors or designs.

He also gave small information about the light bar of the controller. Unlike the PS4 controller, we will find the light bar of DualSense on each side of the touchpad. This is a small but nice call as now the light bard will visible while playing without turning the controller.

Jim Ryan (President & CEO of Sony Interactive Entertainment) also wrote his reaction on the PS5 DualSense reveal, and at last, added that the company is looking forward to sharing more information about PS5, including the console design in the upcoming months. This means we can expect PS5 design reveal in the next 2 to 3 months.
