From Source:

We’ve reached an exciting milestone with PlayStation 5, as we’re starting to ship our new controller in its final design to developers who are implementing its unique features into their games. But first, we wanted everyone in the PlayStation community to get a first look at the DualSense™ wireless controller, and hear our vision for how the new controller will captivate more of your senses as you interact with the virtual worlds in PS5 games. The features of DualSense, along with PS5’s Tempest 3D AudioTech, will deliver a new feeling of immersion to players.

 

 

Whats everyone opinions? Looks more friendly on the hands for sure, the current PS4 controller can hurt after prolonged use.

 

EDIT: Looks like it might be using Type - C (not mentioned in blog) but image here looks like it is?

My opinion is they're all fake until they reveal the console with the controller. Remember the Banana shaped PS3 controller rumors? This looks like the PS4 and XB1 controllers had a baby (just a concept or a render by someone). 

 

Wait the source is the Playstation Blog? Interesting.....

New opinion:

Spoiler

I fucking hate it

Nah this defintely looks legit, not something wild looking like the PS3 controller. I could see myself using this controller.

[PlayStation 2]

Looks like a Google Stadia controller lmao

[Gullerback]

Looks similar to the last just modified for large hands, As it was the largest complaint.

[Guest]

Looks a bit tacky. Maybe it'll look better in pure black.

[imreloadin]

Looks like they're taking a page out of Microsoft's book because their controllers are about as ergonomic and comfortable to hold as possible. Looks really similar in shape and design. I honestly prefer a more homogenized experience regarding controllers because I hate the differences in feel from going between the Xbox and PS, just makes getting used to the layout that much more difficult.

[JJCooper_]

I mean...... It looks big. And no wild edges on it. 

 Look, at least they are using USB-C now. 

[Pickles von Brine]

I like the controller. The PS2 and PS3 controllers use to be my favorite now they just make my hands cramp. If this is more erognomic and stands up better, I may switching controllers all together. Time will tell.

I like it aesthetically, but my issues with the playstation controllers will never really be solved. I don't like the symmetrical analog stick placement on them.

 

Haptic feedback is cool, much better than the archaic weighted motors for rumble that cause me to instantly turn off any rumble feature. Not sure on the trigger feedback. I would probably leave it off myself.

I don't really mind but I can see it being an issue. Differ strokes for different folks.

It looks like Dr. Samuel Hayden.

pfft Who needs comfort?! A real man doesn't need comfort! They need what gets the job done! All you need is

joking

I don't like the black/white theme in the picture, but I think I can live with the solid black option. Looks weird at first but we'll all get used to it eventually. The playstation button between the sticks I'm not really happy with. I think I prefer the old circular button with the logo instead of a logo-shaped button like on the PS2's drive.

 

Edit: On a second look the missing circular glossy black 'background' on the DS4 throws me off. The different spacing between d-pad and the action buttons is bothering me a bit.

The second gen XBOX One Controller is in first place for me (only let down by the incredibly bright XBOX button!), followed by the XBOX 360, then... basically that's it.

PlayStation controllers are way too small to even hold, plus it feels like I'm dislocating my thumbs to use the joysticks!

"We admit it, everyone else's controller is better than ours, so we will copy theirs.... but must make it "Playstation cramp in 5 mins" compatible".

I kinda agree, but the Xbos One broke down to much. The Nintendo Pro controller has all it's benefits plus robust build quality.

[Syaoran]

I think it's just as shit as all the previous ones. L1, L2, R1 and R2 should be on the back of the controller, not on the top; it's a HORRIBLY unnatural way of holding a controller and my hands start to hurt in just a few minutes!

[Ravendarat]

I really like the look of the new controller but opinion means nothing until we can get our hands on them and actually use them, thats when the grades that matter will come in

It isn't, Sony has previously stated they still put more resources on first-party single player games in PS5 instead of cloud streaming

Now, if only that controller comes in black, with the colored button, and PS4 backward compatible...
