Xbox has a controller monopoly when it comes to PC gamers , and that's hardly surprising since the company is owned by Microsoft . However, you are aware that you can also play on your PC with a PlayStation controller , including the famous DualSense (PS5). However, if you wanted to use it on your machine, you had to go through your PS5 console to update the controller, but that was before.
Sony deploys a tool to update the DualSense from a PC
Whether you are on Windows 10 or Windows 11 , this news will interest you, especially if you use a DualSense controller to play your games. Sony has just deployed a tool to update your controller via your PC with an update to improve its performance.
Previously, it was indeed not possible to update the DualSense firmware without going through the console, which in any case required players to be in possession of a PS5 console no matter what, in more than a PC, but Sony has therefore just rectified the situation.
Update your DualSense on PC
In order to update your DualSense controller from a PC , nothing could be simpler. You must first download and install the tool offered by Sony, a tool called " DualSense Wireless Controller Software Updater ". Then simply connect your controller to your PC via a USB cable and follow the instructions.
Despite this good news and this new feature offered via the tool put in place by the manufacturer, Sony has not mentioned the nature of the improvements made to date from the last update, but it seems that there have been an upgrade of adaptive triggers and haptic feedback .
However, you should be aware that these features are not compatible with all PC games, and the list of games that support this performance is quite minimal . In the future, we can hope that the various developers allow the pure and hard exploitation of the performance of the DualSense for their games.
