With size, the PlayStation 5 brings speed, with the console being 3 times faster than every console that ever existed before it.

NEW USER INTERFACE EASY TO NAVIGATE

The new Dual-Sense controller is just out of this world, it is way ahead of its time. With the new Haptic Feedback feature, games feel like real life with controllers reacting differently with every environment.
