PS5 Haptic Controller and Graphics Will Greatly Evolve the Gaming Experience According to Jim Ryan

PlayStation CEO Jim Ryan feels that the haptic tech included in the PS5 controller combined with the graphics will greatly evolve the gameplay experience. He can't wait to see what developers will do with it.

Looking forward to trying out the controller!

[_SilverHawk_]

I truly like the useful innovations of the playstations and I cant wait to use the ps5 controller because it sounds like itll be amazing. I think the steam controller is one of the best controllers ever made with a couple drawbacks
of having only one analog stick and it needing to be tinkered with for every game but the ps5 controller seems like itll be innovative

[UnholyLight]

Yeah Im honestly really excited to see what they do here, I really want a controller that does something different or unique, I want to see Sony and Microsoft branch off further from each other on what they can do with the controller

[The Wood]

Appreciating the improvements/added functionality but I pray it's not to the detriment of the battery life. Hopefully the new batteries hold more capacity. If they last the same amount of time with the additional strains I'll be ok but really hope for a longer life per charge

[lifeisgamesok]

They actually confirmed better batteries in the controllers for more battery life

[UnholyLight]

I've heard this sentiment a lot, so I hope that it gets out there more that it is confirmed that the controllers *should* or will have better life this time around!

[AmUnRa]

When you have seen the presentation of the DS5 you would have read that the battery life of the DS5 is improved😉

[IRetrouk]

The adaptive triggers have me most excited, hopefully devs use them.

[telekineticmantis]

Rumors say the new SOCOM will use it. As you shoot let's say an LMG, the triggers push back as the magazine empties, letting you know when your low, instead of taling your eye of your enemy.

Would be great for sub-machine guns.

[Kornholic]

What new SOCOM game? Zipper is dead and buried. Who is allegedly developing it?

[CaptainHenry916]

The Socom game is real. They was talking about it on Reddit like 1 year ago. It's been in development for about 3 years now when I read it on reddit. That would be a cool launch title

[ssj27]

@korn Guerrilla Games B team is. Since they didn't had much to do online wise they took the time ti develop a Socom game that will be resdy for ps5 lunch. Will use Decima engine. But dont hope for a Socom two type of game. This will be Socom game but not like the clasic ones.

[GTgamer]

Let's see if these devs even put it to use😒

[rainslacker]

Theyll probably use them as theyll be with every system. They didnt bother with the touch pad much because it had limited use in most games, and I think Sony only added it to allow for vita compatibility of some sort.

[sprinterboy]

Agree, I think everything overall will be so much better. For instance games will actually be made from the ground up with 4k in mind, lessons learned with HDR this gen will again be improved upon nxt gen, implementation of Ray tracing (lighting and sound) plus the haptic controller upgrades will add further to the immersion.
A nice 4ktv with a dolby atmos will be a great pairing nxt gen or a decent official dolby atmos headset.

[KickSpinFilter]

4K and HDR are nice and all but it's the graphics and effects I'm excited about.
Just was checking out 8K vs 4K at Bestbuy this weekend, the industry is going to have a hard time pushing out 8K to consumers let alone the infrastructure that needs to be in place for that. Heck even 4K vs Checkerboard rendering is of diminishing returns honestly.

[sprinterboy]

Was watching a digital foundry video on how they think Sony will still use checkerboarding sometimes in games to push other areas and I think they will also.
Thats not a bad thing btw but a good one as I think the Ice team did a incredible job with checkerboarding and they will improve upon it for ps5 also.

[KickSpinFilter]

Ya the checkboarding tech is pretty incredible, I could see both MS & Sony continue to use it in some games that are graphically dense to maintain performance standards. Once you give a developer an inch they want an inch and a half. After all it's hard to see a difference at 6-8 feet away between CB & 4K where most gamers play.

[MasterCornholio]

Nice can't wait to experience haptic feedback.

[telekineticmantis]

Cool. Now about that new PS Move controller with Analog and motion...

[xenz]

Would love for them to take inspiration from Index controllers and implement finger tracking, haptic feedback and pressure sensitivity.

[CrimsonWing69]

could we like, I dunno, maybe see it in action or something? I mean it's no surprise there's a PS5...

[zodiac909]

Can they just announce the damn ps5 event already?!

[sprinterboy]

Feb 12th

[MajorLazer]

Source?

[zodiac909]

@sprinterboy LOL you are everywhere fam! XD We'll need to have a chat if Feb 12th rolls around and there is no Ps5 event ;)

[MajorLazer]

Source ?

[AnubisG]

I'm really excited for this new controller.

[Petebloodyonion]

And where's the mention of graphics in the article?

[Nyxus]

"Of course, with the improvement of the graphics over PS4, I think you will feel a great evolution as a gaming experience."

[Petebloodyonion]

Tks didn't read the huge quote in the middle but it's kind of strange that the quote isn't in the main article.
Usually, when you do Big bold quote, it's to highlight a key part of the article.

[Thundercat77]

I hope the DS5 can be available before the PS5 release just like they did with the DS4.

[meganick]

Hey, this is Gamingbolt’s schtick. Why is Twinfinite copying them?

[Kumakai]

im sincerely glad they are updating the feedback systems in the controllers. I really enjoy the ds4 controller but both the xbox one and switch controllers have significantly more advanced feedback systems over the ds4. in fact the ds4 rumble feels pretty much identical to the ps3 - where as switches hd feedback is nearly as precise as modern smartphone haptics and able to simulate things like clicking, pops etc. and xbox has a higher fidelity rumble and specific trigger haptics that are pretty cool. so this is good news for ps5

[Sophisticated_Chap]

I'm not sure it will evolve anything, but it will certainly bring it up to par with the Xbox One controller, in terms of feedback through the triggers.

[bluebenjamin]

Yeah its amazing watching them brag about haptic feedback than say Xbox brought nothing to gaming 😂 Its like when they announced party chat for Ps4 when 360 been having it, Trophies are Achievements, in game music already had on Xbox. Now haptic feedback means Sony innovated when Xbox one controllers been doing this.

[bluebenjamin]

I see three disagreements so far and its not changing any facts Playstation is copying Xbox like its been doing since Ps3

[IRetrouk]

It will be a far bigger upgrade than the haptic triggers in the xbox controller, the whole pad is haptic, including the sticks, and with adaptive triggers, it's going to be far more than on par with the ones triggers.

[bluebenjamin]

We would hope its Improved haptic feed back than the Xbox one controller being new and all its expected but its still not an original feat and Xbox been doing it

[IRetrouk]

I didnt say haptic feedback was original, but the fact is the pad is far more of an upgrade than just catching up with the xbox pads haptic triggers, the switch also uses haptic feedback. The implementation of resistive triggers is original though, no pad has had that yet.

[THC CELL]

Wanna bet that hole mentioned before no one talking about is a cam or sensor for move games that use lightbar

[chrono1205]

Key words"...what developers will do with it."
Time and money will always come before art and vision.

[eamonn79]

This with the last of us 2.......

[bluebenjamin]

Wow I Wonder if the Scarlet will have a flashlight on the controller

[Exvalos]

The adaptive triggers has so much potential, imagine pulling a bow string and being able to feel the tension as you further draw back the bow.

[S2Killinit]

Amen to that.

[gazgriff2k12]

need a switch style controller for vr

[Imortus_san]

I heard the same about the analogue botões on PS2 (most games that used it were a nightmare), the same about the sixaxis, the move, and so on, all promesis that were never relevant.
