A possible could be the amount of r and d cost along with general costs to bring to market a product that will sell in very small numbers relative to the ps5 install base could eat up costs that would better serve a far larger percentage of the market who already has invested and owns a ps5 like a possible price cut or improved battery life duel sense etc

Probably cause for a controller like this, it's missing the most important thing for something like this. Modularity. With only 4 ports, there's only so many things you can do. It really needed a port for every single button, the touchpad and motion controls. Cause all of these can benefit someone depending on the disability. And sony trying to make one design for all is going to limit a lot of people. Microsoft's approach is a lot better, but more expensive for the accessories

@ReclaimerTyphoon

​@@teneesh3376 This is certainly one of the reasons - Xbox's Adaptive Controller is covered with ports to allow literally any kind of setup anybody on the planet could want or need. Sony is late to the game with this product/it really comes off as super reactionary, very "We only just started thinking about this when Xbox released their completed accessibility product", which feels disingenuous, but also, yeah - even with a fully completed, competent, incredibly versatile on shelves from a competitor, Sony somehow managed to make an inferior product, and it looks like they prioritized style over functionality.

This is brilliant. I'm almost in tears. Thank you for creating this, Sony. Now so many new gamers can enjoy what we all take for granted.

For those living with functional disabilities, this opens a recreational doorway. For some, especially when it involves healing after an accident, the PT/OT work invested can be very demoralizing. This can help mitigate frustrations when having to relearn life. Hopefully for Sony, some of the design cost can fall under the cost umbrella of a retooled, redesigned arcade stick having been modified and adapted for a specific audience. Microsoft did this several years back. I understand businesses exist to make money, and that a controller design for a very specific audience might cost more in design work and tooling than it's profit in revenue. But for the auidence this is marketed to, it's a very nice pick-me-up.

This is the most stellar thing ever done by any gaming platform. Sony & Playstation is galaxies ahead of the rest

One of the biggest W PlayStations has ever had tbh great job!

Such a beautiful design and amazing to see a controller that can be worked for any type of hand combignation, I have friends who struggle with the normal controllers so shared this with them right away!

Kudos to the people at Sony who were involved with making this (accessible controller for people with disabilities) a reality!! Anybody who wants to should be able to get the chance to play!

this is very cool and all but i believe that gaming companies should do more of this but because i am blind the assistive controllers aren’t what i need to play, i would like to have more and more game developers make their game playable not just from the control schemes but have the options for the blind from the start of the game be able to use a screen reader and other blindness settings for audio and such. hopefully one of these days everyone with a disability either blind or those with limited mobility can play in harmony with others whom don’t have such disability.

Thank you PlayStation, you are amazing for developing this! Thank you for showing that the community can be so much more and bringing people together. You earned every smile that this brings. I'm definitely getting one, my dad's disability extends to his hand dexterity and this would be amazing to finally play racing games together.

I’m looking forward to using this. Have an acquired nerve damage to my right hand which causes pain spasm and locking. So glad I can use the left hand to play button intensive games without landing myself in the doctors office again.

The flexibility and customizability of the controller really demonstrates the amount of UX research they did

What games can you play with one stick? I need to see someone actually use this. It's advertised alongside single player games like ratchet and clank, HZD and GOW all of which require aiming and shooting. Usable with a ton of games still though so it's still fantastic that this has been created.

It is ok, but how do you use it on games with two sticks like shooters with only one hand?

Fantastic, if it gives the ability for people with disabilities to play.... I'm getting one, and I don't even have a physical disability. 10/10 Sony, almost brought I tear to my eye.

Biblically accurate ps5 controller

There are still people who are potential gamers who cant use even this product

Please add opacity and scaling option for voice party live caption Regards, deaf person

😔💥 WHY ISNT THE ACCESS CONTROLLER WORKING TOGETHER WITH THE PS PORTAL(like normal on PS5?) 💥😔

This honestly could be like an arcade stick for fighting game players! I am sure the community can mod the paddles to their liking with 3d printing etc

Xbox’s approach was to make their accessibility controller compatible with third party peripherals. Sony’s was to let you build the layout and functionality of the controller yourself

Firstly, Congratulations Sony 🎉👏👏👏🤝 I'm a regular 'able bodied' gamer but i absolutely love you guys even more for this... 🤗😘 Out of curiousity i might get one for myself, see if it can improve my overall experience, perhaps for 3rd person games/MMORPG's and maybe fighting games like Tekken could be more suited to these🤔 The DualSense is still the King of racing and FPS tho😊

As someone with disabilities this is great and I want to buy it but I’m curious, it only has one analog stick so what about the other one? 😅😅
