At the moment of publishing, Sony itself hasn’t talked about this feature at all, so it’s unclear why it decided to include this touch and how much something like this costs. However, it’s small touches like this that have hooked many on PlayStation hardware in the past.
In addition to this, there’s also been plenty of chatter about the controller’s adaptive triggers and haptic feedback, which many are calling a complete gamechanger, though it remains to be seen just how many developers will take advantage of these features.
PlayStation 5 is set to release on November 12, priced at $400 or $500, depending on what version of the console you cop. For more coverage on the next-gen console — including all of the latest news, rumors, and leaks — click here or check out the relevant links below:
