PlayStation Fans Have a Lot to Say About the PS5 DualSense Controller

3.5
Sony’s been quiet when it comes to showing off what parts of the PlayStation 5 will actually look like as Microsoft continues to show off parts of its Xbox Series X, but the PlayStation company surprised people this week with an unforeseen reveal of the PlayStation 5’s DualSense controller. The controller adopts a sleek, two-toned design and boasts some of the features promised to be a part of the controller from Sony’s past previews, and most importantly of all, it’s our first look at hardware associated with the PlayStation 5 beyond renders, concepts, and dev kits. How it feels in player’s hands will ultimately determine how well it’s received, but judging from the initial reactions, people are loving the PlayStation 5 DualSense.

The first full look at the DualSense showed quite the departure from the DualShock controller PlayStation 4 owners are used to as it moves more toward an Xbox One controller shape while still offering some of its own unique aspects. It appears this two-toned design will be the default controller, though there will of course be all sorts of colors and patterns released after the console’s launch.

Sony said it went through “several concepts and hundreds of mockups” over the years before settling on the DualSense design.


“Our goal with DualSense is to give gamers the feeling of being transported into the game world as soon as they open the box,” Sony said. “We want gamers to feel like the controller is an extension of themselves when they’re playing – so much so that they forget that it’s even in their hands!”


While we wait to see more about the PlayStation 5 and perhaps some hands-on videos with the DualSense controller, you can check out some of the initial reactions to the new controller’s design as they were shared online.

The PlayStation 5 does not currently have a set release date but is expected to release during the holiday season of 2020.

Gossip Curious to see if the system will adopt the two-tone look.


From the renders I have seen it doesn't look like it copies it. I'm okay with that as I think the controller is hideous.

Not at all. Feel like they could make a lot of improvement with it but I guess not lol.

This is literally the easiest argument starter there is. Go on Twitter, say something bad about it and see how many responses you get.
