Features, Pre-order Date, and All the Information We Know About Dualsense Edge

 Jul 24, 2024

The PlayStation 5 has a ton of next-generation features. With features like inbuilt SSD, ray tracing, and support for high frame rates, it's no surprise that Sony has been able to match competitors' specifications for power and functionality. However, Sony lagged behind rivals in one aspect for a very long time: the absence of a "pro" or "elite" controller. Although there were several online reports of such a controller, there was no concrete confirmation of this new controller. This has altered as a result of a recent announcement made by Sony at Gamescom 2022, when the DualSense Edge—a feature-rich gamepad that rivals the capabilities of Microsoft's Xbox Elite gamepad—was unveiled.

Features, Pre-order Date, and All the Information We Know About Dualsense Edge

We'll highlight the most important aspects so far from the video that the official PlayStation Youtube channel posted on October 18th, which describes every function of the Dualsense Edge controller.

  • Customizable Inputs, Settings, and Profiles: Button inputs can be remapped and deactivated, and both control sticks and triggers can be adjusted to account for dead zones. After tuning the settings to your liking, you can save them as a profile to use at your leisure! The controller also features a special Fn button and on-controller interface to change these profiles on the fly and adjust game volume and other options.
  • Adjustable Trigger Lengths: Now, players will adjust how far they will have to press the trigger to activate it. This will allow them to customize their experience when playing tactical games where making several shots at a high rate is mandatory.
  • USB Braided Cord with Lockable Connector: The USB braided cord will extend the cable’s life, and the lockable feature will give players the option to avoid accidental disconnects when moving the controller in their playthroughs.
  • Swappable Buttons and Sticks: The back buttons, stick caps, and stick modules can all be swapped and replaced. The possibility of drifting is no longer an issue, and even general wear and tear will be something you don’t have to worry about. Make sure you save money for replacement parts if you need them!
