The controller has a stealthy look, with a mostly black finish and white accents (a sort of reverse of the standard DualSense).The Last of Usfans will quickly spot the glossy trophy icons, pulled straight fromThe Last of Us Part IandThe Last of Us Part II. As Naughty Dog’s Neil Druckmann says, “Players will recognize the Fireflies’ iconic spray-painted logo that originated in Part I, while the moth and wolf represent the intertwining lives and duality between Ellie and Abby in Part II.”
Under the hood, it’s the same DualSense controller we all know and love. You’ll still get those awesome haptics and dynamic adaptive triggers that really pull you into games. It works perfectly with the PS5 and older PlayStation consoles. But, yeah, that also means the thumbsticks are still at risk for stick drift. Even though third-partyHall effect and TMR controllersare getting cheaper and more popular, Sony still hasn’t updated its DualSense controllers with anti-drift sticks.

The Last of UsDualSense controller isn’t the only limited-edition gamepad based on a hit game. Sony recently released theHelldivers 2-themed controller, with a battle-worn design and that iconic black and yellow color scheme.

If the stealthy, beat-down look of theHelldivers 2controller isn’t your thing, the colorfulFortniteDualSense controlleris an excellent option to add color and vibrancy to your gaming setup. At $85, you get aFortnite-themed masterpiece with Fishstick and Peely to help you keep a solid grip.
