In fact, the DualSense controller looks very much similar a cross between the PS4'southward DualShock four controller and the Xbox Wireless Controller. It retains the button and joystick placement of the former only has the thicker and more angular shape of the latter.

The touch on-sensitive panel plant in the DualShock four controller as well looks a little taller yet narrower on the DualSense controller. Sony has said the controller will take a "Create" button, which seems to exist an evolution of the Share button on the DualShock 4, and could brand heavier use of the touch-sensitive panel that wasn't used a great deal in the PS4.

In this new photo, the DualSense controller looks rather corking. The arguably gaudy two-tone colour scheme seems rather more pared downward compared to Sony'southward official shots. The controller's bluish lighting strips aren't illuminated in the photo, so nosotros can't tell if they will be a subtle addition to the controller or a potentially jarring distraction when gaming in darkened rooms.

All in all, the controller looks like an interesting development over the DualShock controllers. And with improved haptic feedback, the DualSense could exist another way for Sony to go players more than immersed with next-generation games, alongside 3D sound, ray-tracing, and super fast loading times. We'll detect out in Nov when the PS5 is expected to launch in time for the vacation season.
