Sony DualSense Edge Wireless Controller Revealed

Sony just revealed their new DualSense Edge Wireless Controller for PlayStation 5! It’s what they’re calling “the first-ever high-performance, ultra-customizable controller developed by Sony Interactive Entertainment”. It certainly looks pretty exciting too, and will allow you to take a more custom approach to your controls, and hopefully give you an edge when it comes to gaming performance. Plus, it just looks cool and fun to use, and for me, that’s often enough to squeeze a purchase out of me.

Dualsense Edge Wireless

The key feature here is that you’ll be able to fully remap the controller, or even deactivate various buttons too, should you wish to have a more focused setup in some games. You can fine-tune the stick sensitivity, and even adjust the inner and outer dead zones to really change up your controls and performance.

Furthermore, each trigger is now adjustable, with lockable multi-level travel distance limiters, and custom dead zones too. with options to tailor travel distance and dead zones to your preference. Short stop faster response for FPS gaming is great, but you can still have the longest throw for racing game control.

Ability to save multiple control profiles

Once you’ve found your ideal control settings, you can save them to unique profiles and swap between them on the fly. With the DualSense Edge wireless controller, you’ll always have your preferred controls for your games ready to go, whether you’re facing Norse gods and monsters in God of War Ragnarök, or rival players in an online battle royale.

On-controller user interface

The dedicated Fn button allows you to easily adjust your setup while staying focused on the in-game action – quickly swap between your pre-set control profiles, adjust game volume and chat balance, and access the controller profile settings menu to set up and test new control iterations while in game.

Changeable stick caps and back buttons

Three types of swappable stick caps (standard, high dome, and low dome) help you stay comfortable in game while maintaining grip and stability. The two swappable sets of back buttons (half-dome and lever) can be configured to be any other button input, putting more essential controls at your fingertips.

Replaceable stick modules

Play longer with the ability to fully replace each individual stick module on the controller (replacement stick modules will be sold separately).

Built-in DualSense wireless controller features

The DualSense Edge wireless controller retains the signature comfort and immersive experience of the DualSense wireless controller when playing supported games, including haptic feedback, adaptive triggers, built-in microphone, motion controls, and more.

In addition to the included stick caps and back button sets, the DualSense Edge wireless controller comes with a USB Type-C braided cable, which uses a connector housing to lock into the controller so it’s much less likely to slip out at a crucial moment. The included carrying case, which keeps your DualSense Edge wireless controller and components together and organized in one place, allows you to charge the controller via USB connection while it’s stored in the case.

In the months ahead, we look forward to sharing more details about the DualSense Edge wireless controller, including launch timing, and can’t wait to see how the PS5 community unlocks the full potential of the controller’s customization options.

As a child still in my 30's (but not for long), I spend my day combining my love of music and movies with a life-long passion for gaming, from arcade classics and retro consoles to the latest high-end PC and console games. So it's no wonder I write about tech and test the latest hardware while I enjoy my hobbies!
