We had a great opportunity to innovate with PS5 by offering game developers the chance to explore how they can increase that sense of immersion through our new controller. That's why we introduced haptic feedback that conveys a variety of powerful sensations when playing, like the slow grittiness of driving through mud. We also integrated adaptive triggers into the L2 and R2 buttons on DualSense so you can really feel the tension of your actions, like drawing a bow to shoot an arrow.
