To improve the gaming experience, the PS5 controller is designed with adaptive triggers and haptic feedback. However, if you don’t like them, you can follow this post from MiniTool Partition Wizard to disable PS5 adaptive triggers and haptic feedback.
What Are PS5 Adaptive Triggers and Haptic Feedback
PS5 is short for PlayStation 5, a home video game console developed by Sony Interactive Entertainment. It was released in November 2020 as the successor to PS4 (PlayStation 4). PS5 has been improved a lot in performance compared with PS4.
For example, the PS5 DualSense controller is quite different from the PS4 DualShock controller. The PS5 DualSense wireless controller can heighten your senses with immersive haptic feedback and dynamic adaptive triggers. These features are all integrated into an iconic design.
The adaptive triggers enable you to feel varying levels of force and tensions when you interact with the in-game gear and environments, such as pulling back an increasing tight bowstring or hitting the brakes on a speeding car.
And the haptic feedback uses dual actuators instead of traditional rumble motors, which allows you to experience physically responsive feedback to your in-game actions. During the gameplay, the dynamic vibrations in your hands will make you feel a real recoil of different weapons.
PS5 haptic feedback and adaptive triggers are wonderful game features for some game lovers. However, sometimes the added resistance adaptive triggers might make the game more difficult to play or distract you. If you don’t like these features, you can follow the content below to turn them off.
