Sony is ready to start marketing its next-generation PlayStation 5 console with commercials. Sony has opted to focus on the 3D audio support and the PS5’s DualSense controller’s support for haptic feedback and adaptive triggers.
It’s a typically lavish, live-action affair from Sony, and focuses primarily on the console’s DualSense controller and the PS5’s 3D audio. The DualSense controller features haptic feedback and adaptive triggers that promise to make games feel more immersive, and 3D audio is expected to make game worlds feel more alive than ever before.
The DualSense controller could be a hit for Sony, providing developers take advantage of all its fancy features, though it will be up to Sony to show how capable the tech is in its first-party titles.
There’s no gameplay in the trailer, but the commercial’s existence shows Sony is readying itself for a major marketing push in time for the PS5’s Holiday 2020 release. We already know the Xbox Series X is due in November, so it would be a surprise to see Sony release any later than that.
