hogwarts legacy ps5 controller release date

The built-in lights on the DualSense controller will also flash whenever players cast spells or take damage from their opponents. The DualSense haptic feedback and adaptive triggers will also work on other activities in 'Hogwarts Legacy.' The controller will support special effects when players are crushing ingredients for a Potions class assignment, handling a screeching Mandrake, and flying on a broom or a hippogriff. Avalanche has also added a 'sizzling' effect on the controller when 'Hogwarts Legacy' players protect themselves from spells using the Shield Charm. Players will feel these effects on the right side of the controller to mimic the experience of holding a wand with just one hand.

'Spells will feel unique when you cast them, thanks to haptic feedback providing a direct connection between the DualSense controller and your wand,' Wood said. The controller's adaptive triggers will come into play when players are casting spells and summoning charms in the game. And the game will leverage the features on the PS5 controller to make players feel like they are actually handling a wand when casting spells.Īvalanche's Chandler Wood detailed in a PlayStation Blog post on Tuesday how the DualSense controller will help make the 'Hogwarts Legacy' more immersive. Just like in the 'Harry Potter' books and movies, wands will be one of the main tools players will use in the game. While 'Hogwarts Legacy' will launch on PC and various consoles, developer Avalanche Software confirmed the game would have exclusive features made possible by the DualSense controller.
