PS 5 DIGITAL EDITION

A new concept induced. Sony launches alongside PS5, PS5 Digital Edition. It is a disc-less version of the next-generate console.

The digital console will aim at flashing  the same specs as the standard Play Station 5 but with more streamlined packaging.

The PS5 digital edition aims at visualizing Sony moving a level ahead. With the increase in physical-media-free hobby, Sony is now depending on players to make use of digital downloads and streaming services in place of buying disc based hardware.

Even though this high-tech invention seems cool and fun from a consumer perspective, from a business perspective, its popularity may put many people out of business. This tech also comes with common hardships and difficulties such as trading video games with friends. It creates a mood of tension for many stores solely running on selling video games over discs.

As for game fanatics who have a knack for gaming collections the standard PS5 remains a more reliable option.

PS5 DUAL SENSE CONTROLLER

PS5 is going to come with a new game pad. PS5 dual sense controller is not the dual shock 5 you would expect. The black and white color scheme used on it is bold. The two tone PS5 controller extends to four face button combinations extending to circle, square, triangle and cross or X which are colorless. There is a color popping around the center of the touch pad.

The controller contains haptic feedback in L2 and R2 shoulder buttons that have been built to be adaptive.

These adaptive triggers are important, for the players must get to feel the tension of their actions through motions at their finger sensory as explained by Sony.

This will allow developers to resonate with the triggers and infuse more accuracy in their creations.

Dual Sense will include a microphone inside the controller. Letting its gamers to ditch their headsets for communicating with their friends. The ‘Share’ button is no longer active. Goes on the ‘Create’ button.

Well! That is what Sony is calling it. Even though the button is on the same spot and is still intended for game play content to share with the world.

The Dual Shock 4 will be running on PS5 as confirmed by Sony, but only for games meant for Play Station 4. With the company stating that “PS5 games should take advantage of the new capabilities and features we’re bringing to the platform, including the features of Dual Sense wireless controller.” As stated by Techradar.com

 

WHAT TO PLAY?

The PS5 games line is full of titles and news. You will definitely find something appetizing in there. One of the attention grabbing titles in Horizon Zero Dawn sequel, Horizon Forbidden West. A game that undoubtedly showed off the next gen visuals, featuring sun kissed beaches, coastal reefs, full filled by robot dinosaurs terrorizing the original game. It will be seeing the main character Aloy head into the ruins of America.

Several other franchises are set on running too.

Sony’s take is on Spider-man, managed by Insomniac Games, which will come back into action with Mile Morales taking up the role of your friendly neighborhood spider man set in another open world title across Manhattan.

The other confirmed games are God of War: Ragnarok (upcoming in 2021) Five Nights at Freddy’s, Hogwarts Legacy (a Harry Potter RPG), Final Fantasy XVI, Devil May Cry 5 have all been confirmed for PS5.
