Sony is rumored to be releasing an updated DualSense controller according to a Best Buy Canada listing.

Priced at approximately 60 euros, the upgrade will include not just the controller but also a charging station. As gamers eagerly await, there's no official confirmation from Sony regarding the release date or the existence of this new accessory. Keeping up with Sony's developments, the PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium games for January were also announced recently.

What improvements does the rumored DualSense V2 controller include?

The rumored DualSense V2 controller is expected to include an improved battery life of 12 hours and comes with a charging station, all for a price point of around 60 euros.

The existing DualSense wireless controller for PlayStation 5 has been widely praised for its immersive haptic feedback, dynamic adaptive triggers, and built-in microphone, all integral to the PS5's gaming experience. Since its release alongside the PS5 in November 2020, enthusiasts have speculated on how Sony might iterate on its next-generation controller. The addition of an enhanced battery life would address one of the few criticisms surrounding the original device, affirming Sony's commitment to evolving its hardware in line with consumer expectations.
