While we’re still waiting for the unveiling of the next-generation consolePlaystation 5which is set to launch in the holidays of 2020, Sony has decided to show us what the controller will look like. They introduce the DualSense controller which doesn’t look to be a huge departure from the PS4 version, but has some noticable differences that sets it apart from the last couple of generations including a more rounded body shape and a larger touchpad button.
Some new features that have been added include haptic feedback, adaptive triggers on the L2 and R2 triggers. There is a more sizeable touchpad and the replacement of the “Share” button with a new “Create” button instead. There is an increased battery life and built-in microphone. You may also notice the colour scheme, black and white.
Sony has also announced that the final version of the controller has now been shipped to developers around the world, meaning they were free to share the look with the public.
