The DualSense Edge is the latest controller for the PS5 to be released by Sony. It has the same shape and general design as the base DualSense but features brand-new buttons and more customisation options than ever.
It comes bundled with a white carrying case and multiple accessories, including a new braided USB-C cable and charger lock, so your device won’t become disconnected during intensive gaming sessions.
