Sony’s DualSense controller is maybe the very best controller Sony has ever launched for a PlayStation console, and it seems it could have a ‘v2’ model within the works that comes with an additional accent.
A leaked product web page from Finest Purchase Canada (the hyperlink is now not dwell) as potted by X consumer @Lbabinz briefly showcased a list for the brand new controller model, together with a brief description of it. In that description, the DualSense controller was particularly referenced as a “v2” model. It was additionally talked about that it comes with a DualSense Charging Station. The charging station isn’t included within the pictures. But when it’s coming straight from Sony, then there’s a superb likelihood that it’s the identical one it launched as a standalone accent alongside the PlayStation 5 again in 2020.
This accent is an easy little stand that you could slot two controllers into. The outline on the itemizing reads “DualSense Charging Station (included) affords straightforward click-in charging.” This can be a fairly correct description. Because the controllers are very straightforward to click on into the dock and juice them up. It additionally matches each the common DualSense and the DualSense Edge. And I’ve been capable of match my SCUF Reflex FPS onto it as properly.
The DualSense v2 Controller could value more cash
Since this itemizing is from Finest Purchase Canada, the $89.99 price ticket is probably not what US customers can count on to pay. Primarily based on the conversion charge $89.99 CAD is just $67.06 USD. Nevertheless, that may not be the ultimate US worth. The unique DualSense is already $69.99 and it doesn’t include a charging station. You should purchase the charging station individually although for $29.99, or in a bundle for $99.98. Taking that into consideration, it’s very doable the US will get this new controller model with the charging station included for $89.99 USD. With Sony selecting to maintain the value the identical.
That is hypothesis, after all. But when that’s the route Sony takes, it might be about $10 cheaper than shopping for the present DualSense and charging station individually. One other chance is that Sony is simply throwing the charging station in without cost right here with this new model. A present DualSense (or v1 model if you’ll) is $89.99 CAD in Canada whereas it’s $69.99 USD within the US. Going off of those costs for the present fashions, Sony could also be trying to launch the v2 model with the charging station as a freebie.
It will definitely be a consumer-friendly transfer. And one which we hope Sony makes. Apart from the charging station, nothing else appears to be totally different about this controller. As famous by Wccftech, the itemizing mentioning the charging station may also be a mistake by Finest Purchase Canada.
