The game also utilizes the PS5 DualSense controller’s adaptive triggers as players use their respective soul cards to traverse the many levels and puzzles offered.
“You’ll feel it when you’re moving faster on the water, and when you successfully snipe a demon in the distance, you get subtle confirmation,” Esposito says. The DualSense controller also supports gyroscope aiming.
