The rumors about the PS5 controller were true: PlayStation 5 has a new “Pro” input method, welcome the new DualSense Edge
With all the rumors that have overlapped over the last few weeks, it is clear that Gamescom had the “task” of confirming some, sooner or later: well, the rumors about the equivalent PS5 of the Xbox Elite controller were founded now that Sony has officially revealed DualSense Edge per PlayStation 5. This controller is the first ever released by the blue titan to be fully customizable. In other words, as the official blog post also mentioned, the inputs can be entirely remapped. Or deactivated. The sensitivity of the levers and dead zones are also part of the equation, and the same goes for the range of the triggers.
“Ow, the Edge”: The Pro version of PS5’s DualSense brings customization to PlayStation 5
PS5 players can also save multiple control profiles to their DualSense Edge and change the PlayStation 5’s input methods on the fly. There is also an Fn key, not unlike computer keyboards, to access settings. Among the latter, the volume of the game, that of chats, the change between saved profiles and much more stand out. Of course, the top of the levers and the dorsal buttons are also interchangeable. The three types of shells include a standard variant, a concave and a convex one according to the needs of our fingertips. You can see it all in action in the trailer below.
The levers themselves are interchangeable, but they are the only aspect of this great controller that doesn’t come in the box. Returning to what you will find in the package, in addition to the USB-C cable for charging, Sony will also provide you with a case to carry the controller with you. What the second Japanese giant did not provide, rather, are the most salient aspects. We regret to inform you, in fact, not to be informed about prezzo e exit date. Of course, Sony did not fail to specify that we will have more details “in the months to come”. And luckily, with the salivation they put into it.
