sony It looks like a new DualSense controller is being released with a larger battery capacity, so you can finally stop complaining about your dead battery (at a cost, of course).
Ah, the age-old debate: PlayStation controller or Xbox controller? Everyone has their own strengths and everyone has their own weaknesses, both of which depend on the individual. One of the biggest differences between the two is that since the days of the Xbox 360, Microsoft’s console has opted to use AA batteries for its controllers, while the PS3 has opted for rechargeable controllers. This is true for both PS5 and Xbox Series X/S, but the problem is that the DualSense doesn’t last as long as you’d like, especially if you play a lot of games. However, as Resetera user ezidro3 (thanks IGN) discovered, this may not be an issue soon, as the DualSense is likely to receive a battery update.

Although it has since been removed, a listing at Best Buy Canada appeared to show a Sony DualSense V2 controller. difference? There’s nothing inside, but apparently it has “up to 12 hours of battery life on a full charge.” The full listing notes that the controller also comes with a DualSense charging station, priced at $90 CAD, which is the same price as the controller without a charging station currently sold at Best Buy Canada. So if you haven’t picked up a charging station yet and you’re looking for a second controller or you just want a controller with a longer battery life so you can keep playing Fortnite and getting wins and stuff like that Something that sounds like a pretty good deal.
There’s no release date listed anywhere, so who knows when it will be released – there’s always the possibility that a surprise State of Play might show up when a new version of the controller is released, though it might seem trivial enough to surprise us . If so, please reveal it on Twitter. In the meantime, please remain vigilant.
