Leaked PS5 Dev Kit Image Features Better Look at Controller - News

by William D'Angelo , posted on 03 April 2020 / 3,948 Views

Images of the PlayStation 5 development kit have been leaked over the last few months. The images feature the PS5 dev kit and the controller

The dev kit for the PS5 features the same V shape that was seen in the leaked render. V in Roman Numerals stand for the number five, so the shape could be a nod to the name of the console. The top left of the front panel features the text "Prototype 1 Not For Sale." There also appears to be six USB ports, as well as an opening where a disc can be inserted.

A new image of the PS5 dev kit has been leaked online, which features a closer look at the new DualShock 5 controller. It is known the controller will feature adaptive triggers and will be haptic-enabled.

View the image below:

The PlayStation 5 will launch in Holiday 2020.

Thanks ResetEra.

Come on Sony :) Time to show that sweet trailer of the next New Horizon Dawn game and show us the sexiness of the Play Station Five! I was hoping for more news at the CES but they will probably start showing the goods soon now alongside with Microsoft! 2020 is going to be a very exciting year for gamers :)

Well it pretty much looks like a PS4 controller nothing wrong with that though. Also the next X Box controller pretty much looks like a X1 controller.

I would have at least taken a pic of the back of the controller to see if there really are any back buttons.

I like the new fill between the analog sticks rather than having a gap inbetween. Actually looks better. I found the DS4 to look quite messy in design.
