PlayStation and Team Asobi are launching a special edition DualSense controller to celebrate the forthcoming release of Astro Bot.
Sony Interactive Entertainment and Team Asobi — the developers behind the forthcoming Astro Bot — have teamed up to design and release a limited edition Astro Bot DualSense controller. Just look at it. I need it. The Astro Bot limited edition controller adds blue controller grips and sci-fi accents and features Astro’s signature pair of bright blue eyes on the touchpad that, based on the adorable trailer, appear to blink at you.
The team has increased the number of textures you can feel through the controller like sand, glass, or metal. All of Astro’s new power-ups will have a distinct feel to them thanks to haptic feedback and the adaptive triggers. In the demo, there are little spark plugs you frequently have to pull out of the ground. The sound effects coming out of the controller combined with the slowly increasing resistance on the triggers made it actually feel like yanking on stubborn wires.
