The head of Counterplay Games praises the characteristics of the controller of the new Sony console, which has adaptive triggers and haptic technology.
Godfall was the first video game officially announced for PlayStation 5. It is not exclusive to the platform, as it also comes out on PC, but in principle a launch on Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S. is not planned. In an interview with the Official PlayStation Magazine of the Kingdom United, Keith Lee, CEO of Counterplay Games, highlighted the features of DualSense, the new console controller. According to the manager, taking control is an “incredible” experience, since the sensations of the vibration are transferred to each specific situation.
After years building evolved versions of the DualShock, Sony Interactive Entertainment opted this time for a profound redesign of its controller concept. In this way, not only does its shape change, but new features are added. Adaptive triggers offer more sensitivities when, for example, handling a weapon. It is not the same to press it hard than to do it gently, something that will be reflected in the gameplay. Haptic technology, on the other hand, focuses on increasing tactile sensations depending on the circumstances that occur in the game. In that sense, Astro’s Playground, the title that comes preloaded on the console, is a field of experimentation that the player can access for free.
