PlayStation revealed the new PS5 wireless controller, which is described as an “exciting milestone with PlayStation 5.
“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,” it said on its blog announcement.
PlayStation changed the angle of the hand triggers and also made some subtle updates to the grip. It also maintained a strong battery life for DualSense’s rechargeable battery, and lessened the weight of the controller as much as possible as new features were added.
“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. We’ll have more details on this feature as we get closer to launch,” it said.

DualSense also adds a built-in microphone array, which will enable players to easily chat with friends without a headset – ideal for jumping into a quick conversation. “But of course, if you are planning to chat for a longer period, it’s good to have that headset handy,” it added.
As for the colors, the developer went a different direction this time around and decided on a two-toned design. Additionally, they changed the position of the light bar that will give it an extra pop. On DualShock 4, it sat on the top of the controller; now, it sits at each side of the touchpad, giving it a slightly broader look and feel.
“We are thrilled about sharing the final look of the DualSense controller with our fans, and we can’t wait for everyone to get their hands on it,” PlayStation said.
