The controller is spherical and has buttons around it in a circular pattern. In addition, there is a toggle stick to help players navigate around in games or for general use.The PS5 Access Controller offers many hardware customization options to players, including the default settings. The buttons on the controller are detachable, and other controls can replace them. This unique feature provides players with the opportunity to customize the controller according to their needs. Moreover, the controller has swappable stick caps allowing players to change the texture of the buttons in case of any discomfort. The controller has many more features, including 4 aux ports for sound and haptic feedback. Players can make adjustments in the distance between the stick and the controller accordingly.

The PS5 access controller allows players to configure the buttons for their needs. Players can create profiles and save their layout in the system so they do not have to map the input buttons every time they play.

Furthermore, players can assign various commands to one button, making the experience more user-friendly.Another unique feature of the PS5 Access Controller is pairing the device with other devices, such as access controllers or the regular DualSense controller. This feature allows them to experience haptic feedback and enjoy the game entirely.
