Feeling your surroundings with the DualSense for PS5
At its heart, Heavenly Bodies is a game about tactility, physicality and motion. In this way, it’s important to us that your cosmonaut body and your environmental surroundings feel as well as they move. With the shiny new features coming in PS5’s DualSense controller, we’re exploring all sorts of ways you’ll be able to experience the weight, texture, density, energy and vibration of every tool, device and surface you come into contact with.
For example, with adaptive triggers you can feel:
- Objects slip from your grip, such as ropes, or your partner’s desperate fingertips
- The density of the object you’re gripping. For example, metal scaffolding will feel cold and hard, whilst a space-suit will feel soft and squishy
And with haptic feedback you’ll learn to understand that, in space, your sense of touch means everything, as you…
- Feel the ship rattle through your bones as it passes through coarse space debris
- Feel a lever snap from its base as you try to close the pod bay doors
- Feel the dreadful loss of all sensation as your body is swept into the endless void
Heavenly Bodies is coming to PS5 and PS4
