Design and features
The Grand Theft Auto VI edition of the DualSense controller sports many of the familiar colours and motifs that anyone awaiting the game will now be familiar with. This includes palm trees embossed across the controller's handle sections, while the base of the controller sports a blue and deep purple colour scheme. The buttons on the face of the controller come equipped with a subtle yet bright pink to add to the 'Miami'-style aesthetic of the controller, in line with the game's setting.
Like other DualSense controllers, this controller is capable of wirelessly connecting with any compatible PS5 console and can provide haptic feedback to increase immersion in games while also coming with built-in speakers and a microphone to add extra features to certain games.
Alternative controllers and customer reviews
If you want something a little different, you could go for the Subsonic Wireless Controller for the PS5, which is available at a reduced price from £41.99 to £31.41 on Amazon. This controller comes with programmable paddles and LEDs to add extra style and functionality to your gaming experience. Otherwise, you could opt for the Dinosoo RGB Controller for PS5, which is currently available on Amazon for £35.98. This controller comes with dual vibration and includes back paddles for extra interactive options.
Currently, there are no reviews available for the GTA VI edition of the DualSense controller; however, ordinary versions of the DualSense controller on Amazon has received a wave of praise from customers, with one writing: "Feels premium. Awesome. Arrived in perfect condition. No issues. Buttons feel nice and smooth. Haptic triggers are really immersive. Fits the overall white and black aesthetic of my gaming area. Keep in mind that the controller is prone to losing its texture in the grip areas with continuous use. Would buy again."
Another added: "Great quality and new functionality such as adaptive triggers. Unlike other people my controller hasn’t had stick drift and I’ve had the controller over 2 years or more. If you treat the controller well then it seems to last contrary to what people say. Although for the price it could be more resistant to wear and tear."
A third said: "Perfect and very happy. It is what it is but delighted all the same." A fourth added: "A great buy and my son is over the moon with the new controller, just hope he takes it easy on me when we play Borderlands 3. I am looking forward to some family time and cant wait to start playing. Thank you for the quick delivery."
A fifth said: "A great controller that feels comfortable and responsive to use. The build quality is solid and it works exactly as expected with the PlayStation 5. The design is sleek and the buttons and triggers feel smooth during gameplay. Overall a high-quality controller that performs really well." A sixth added: "Smooth and highly responsive. Just as described, definitely recommend."
However, one less pleased customer wrote: "Lasted 2 years but then suddenly couldn’t charge it, but it at least felt good to hold and was very responsive, but it breaks easily." Another added: "This is my 3rd purchase of the product, expensive in reality, especially due to it being a necessity for game play. Durability is poor for the most part. Stick drift and trigger hinge problems on all three controllers that I have purchased. It's a high quality casing and the colour is nice, collects dirt like no tomorrow. It's just a shame they don't invest as much time into the hardware as they do the software that goes into them."
