What is DualSense Edge PS5 controller  

The DualSense Edge is the "first-ever ultra-customizable controller developed by PlayStation." It features a range of hardware and software personalization options, including full button remapping, the ability to tune the sensitivity of the sticks and triggers and the option to swap between multiple control profiles on the fly. It also sports two changeable sets of back buttons (that are completely customizable) and three sets of stick caps (standard, high dome and low dome). It can be recharged via a supplied braided USB-C cable and even comes with a carrying case for convenient storage. Plus, it packs all the signature features of the regular DualSense controller including haptic feedback and adaptive triggers. It will release on January 26 and will retail for $199/£209. That is quite a significant jump from the price of the standard DualSense controller which costs around $69/£69 but has gone on sale for as low as $55 during major retail events. It's also got us speculating about the price of the PSVR 2. Will the new enhancements offered by the DualSense Edge justify the eyewatering price? We'll have to wait to get our hands on the controller to find out, but right now consider our curiosity piqued.
