The official controller of the PlayStation 5, the DualSense, promises to be a concentrate of technology contributing to immersion of players. She might even be able to automatically recognize the player who has it in hand. However, this functionality has not yet been confirmed. Sony has just published its annual report dedicated to different technologies. Engineer Yukari Konishi gave details on the long-awaited haptic feedback of the DualSense. She explains that the vibrations of the controller can be automatically generated by the sound effects of video games. A tool will make it easier for developers. Indeed, the latter will not have to configure themselves each vibration that they want to incorporate into their games.
Developers will be able to integrate vibrations much more easily
Selon Yukari Konishi, « We not only developed a tool that makes it easier for developers to design natural and comfortable vibrations, but we also created a method that almost automatically generates vibrations from in-game sound effects “. This feature is therefore not intended for gamers, but for developers. Of course, third-party developers must use this feature to correctly integrate the haptic feedback of the DualSense into their PS5 games.
In addition to the haptic feedback, Yukari Konishi also did not forget to mention adaptive triggers. These offer players the opportunity to ” feel tension in different actions such as bending a bow to shoot an arrow “. On this subject, the gameplay demo of Ratchet & Clank : Rift Apart put in the spotlight these adaptive triggers. The player can, for example, exert slight pressure to fire with a single barrel. By applying more force, he can shoot with both.
Since its official presentation a few months ago, the DualSense controller is talked about a lot. And for good reason, Sony has announced many innovations among which the most important is obviously HD haptic feedback. This technology promises to make the player feel a variety of sensations such as falling raindrops. In addition, game director Godfall also announced that the vibrations of the controller will have the ability to make its user feel the sensation of a weapon colliding against another. The DualSense controller is almost as expected as the PlayStation 5 and the PlayStation 5 Digital Edition due out at the end of the year, so let’s hope she keeps her promises.
