Sony has begun to share more details on its vision for next-gen virtual reality, today announcing and showing off the new controllers that will come with PSVR 2.0 for PS5.

"Our new VR controller speaks to our mission of achieving a much deeper sense of presence and stronger feeling of immersion in VR experiences," PlayStation's Hideaki Nishino said in a blog post. "It will build upon the innovation we introduced with the DualSense wireless controller, which changed how games 'feel' on PS5 by unlocking a new way to tap into the sense of touch. Now we’re bringing that innovation to VR gaming."

The PS5 VR controller has an "orb" shape that Sony says will allow you to hold it "naturally." This controller is said to offer a "high degree of freedom" with "no constraints" for moving your hands.

"We also designed the new controller with great ergonomics in mind, so it's well-balanced and comfortable to hold in each of your hands," Nishino said. "We applied learnings from testing users with a range of hand sizes, as well as the decades of insights from controllers across all PlayStation platforms. The result is an iconic design that will change how VR games are played."

The controllers feature a number of unique features, such as adaptive triggers that add "palpable tension" when pressed, similar to the triggers on the PS5's DualSense controller. The controllers also have haptic feedback that will allow users to "feel the difference" based on what they are playing. Sony provided examples like trekking through a rocky desert or engaged in melee combat.

The PS5 VR 2.0 controllers also have "finger touch detection," which can detect your fingers without you needed to press anything where your thumb, index finger, or middle finger is. Tracking is done through a "tracking ring" across the bottom of the controller, so it seems the PlayStation Camera for tracking might be a think of the past.
