Instagram user tears down a PS5 DualSense controller
First images show the internal workings of Sony’s next-gen game pad
The first disassembled PS5 controller images have appeared online, showing how the internal hardware of PlayStation’s DualSense works.
The images first appeared on the Instagram account of an Argentinian peripheral firm and were enhanced by a Resetera user. The account also posted the most up-close PS5 controller images yet.
PlayStation is heavily promoting the features of PS5’s DualSense controller in its marketing for the new console.
Last month the platform holder premiered a PS5 TV ad which focuses on the new features of PS5’s DualSense controller and welcomes viewers to “a new world of immersion”. DualSense is set to feature haptic feedback and ‘adaptive’ triggers, among other features.
UPDATE 07/10/20: Sony has released an official PlayStation 5 teardown video, showing off the upcoming console’s internal components.
ORIGINAL STORY CONTINUES: A newly approved PlayStation patent suggests DualSense could automatically detect the user’s identity by how they hold their controller.
The platform holder has confirmed a PlayStation 5 release date of November 12 in the US, Japan, Canada, Mexico, Australia and South Korea.
The rest of the world will get the console a week later on November 19, including Europe, Middle East, South America, Asia and South Africa.
PS5 will be priced at $500/€500/£450 for the standard edition and $400/€400/£360 for the Digital Edition, with the only difference between them being the former’s inclusion of a disc drive.
