PlayStation Reportedly Developing Pro Controllers For PS5
A new rumor is claiming that Sony is working on a «Pro PS5 Controller» for the PlayStation 5, which will have removable analog sticks, rear buttons, and grips. The PS5's DualSense has a number of unique features, such as its haptic feedback and adaptive triggers, but the functions and buttons of the controller are unchanged from the DualShock 4 used by the PS4.
The standard controllers used by most consoles are fine with the vast majority of games, but some players prefer specific setups for individual games or genres. Fighting game fans have no problem investing in large arcade sticks, while racing game fans will buy wheels and pedals for a more immersive racing experience. There are some companies that produce higher-quality controllers that are more expensive than the ones that come bundled with consoles, but are made from sturdier materials, and have additional features, such as the Nacon Revolution X Pro Controller, which comes with a set of weights that can be inserted into the controller, to better suit the comfort of the player.

The controller was referred to casually as the «PS5 Pro Controller,» but that likely won't be the official name, unless Sony is ignoring the DualSense branding. This report has yet to be verified and should be taken with a grain of salt until an official announcement is made by Sony.
