Choose from the chic Chroma Pearl, vivid Chroma Indigo or fresh Chroma Teal – three mesmerising colours for the DualSense® wireless controller. Grab an extra controller for your PS5 to enjoy co-op gaming with your friends and family. The innovative DualSense controller combines the iconic PlayStation layout with exciting new features. Replacing traditional rumble motors, haptic feedback really hits different. You'll feel every bump on the road or footstep of an enemy approaching. And the adaptive triggers only add to the realism. With varying levels of force and tension, they can mimic the stiffness of a brake pedal or the tension of a bowstring. The Create button lets you show your gaming highlights and epic fails to the world. Multi-device connectivity lets you hook it up using USB Type-C or Bluetooth and game on your PS5, PC, Mac or smartphone. Use the built-in microphone and headset port to chat with your teammates online. There's an illuminated mute button too (for when an NPC is talking to you IRL).

FAQs
How do I charge the DualSense controller?
You can charge the DualSense controller by connecting it to your PlayStation 5 console using the included USB-C cable, or by using a compatible USB wall charger (sold separately).
Is the DualSense controller compatible with PC?
The DualSense controller can be connected to a PC via USB or Bluetooth for basic input. However, features like haptic feedback and adaptive triggers may not be fully supported by all games or require specific drivers/software.
What is the 'Create' button for?
The 'Create' button allows you to quickly capture screenshots and video clips of your gameplay, as well as start broadcasting your gaming sessions to streaming platforms.
How do I update the controller's firmware?
The controller's firmware is typically updated automatically when you update your PlayStation 5 system software. You can check for updates in your PS5 system settings.
Can I use headphones with the DualSense controller?
Yes, the DualSense controller features a 3.5mm headset jack, allowing you to plug in your compatible headphones or gaming headset for audio and microphone use.
How long does the battery last on a single charge?
Info needed: Battery life varies significantly based on usage, particularly how often haptic feedback and adaptive triggers are engaged. Expect several hours of gameplay, but exact duration can differ.
How do I reset my DualSense controller?
To reset the controller, locate the small hole on the back near the L2 shoulder button. Use a small, pointed object (like a straightened paperclip) to press and hold the hidden button inside for 3-5 seconds. This will factory reset the controller.
Troubleshooting
Controller won't connect or pair with the PS5.
Ensure the controller is charged. Connect it to the PS5 with a USB-C cable and press the PS button. If that doesn't work, try resetting the controller by pressing the small reset button on the back with a paperclip.
Haptic feedback or adaptive triggers are not working.
Check your PS5 settings under 'Accessories' > 'Controllers' to ensure 'Vibration Intensity' and 'Trigger Effect Intensity' are not set to 'Off'. Also, ensure the game you are playing supports these features.
Microphone is not picking up audio or is too quiet.
Ensure the controller's mute button is not active (the LED on the button should be off). Check PS5 audio settings under 'Sound' > 'Microphone' to adjust input level and ensure the correct input device is selected.
Controller battery drains quickly.
Reduce 'Vibration Intensity' and 'Trigger Effect Intensity' in PS5 settings, as these features consume more power. Also, decrease the brightness of the controller's light bar. Consider enabling the power-saving option to turn off the controller after a period of inactivity.
Buttons or analog sticks are unresponsive or drifting.
Try resetting the controller using the reset button on the back. If the issue persists, ensure the controller's firmware is up to date via the PS5 system software. If the problem continues, it may indicate a hardware issue.
