The sound of a new patent is quite intriguing when it involves an in-demand piece of gaming hardware. Sony has reportedly patented a new PlayStation 5 gamepad with advanced haptic feedback analog sticks. The gamepad will apparently use Newtonian fluids to provide users with more real-life resistance feedback.

PlayStation consoles have evolved majorly over its existence. Alongside consoles, Sony also strived to provide controllers with the same amount of attention. The latest controller from Sony, Dual Sense, is a considerable improvement over its Dual Shock range of controllers. Today’s Dual Sense controllers offer players an exhilarating haptic feedback system like no other competitors.

Dual Sense’s offerings prompt developers and allow them to add PlayStation-exclusive details to their games. As a result, PlayStation 5 owners can enjoy a heightened gaming experience. Now, the new patent, if implemented, will allow players to experience more real-life resistance to perform certain in-game tasks.

As Metro reported, Sony ideated using certain non-Newtonian fluids in a PlayStation 5 Gamepad to create hydraulic resistance that players can experience when playing a game. The new design will also allow the analog sticks to retract into the controller’s body when a player applies pressure, alongside lending a feeling of resistance.

A non-Newtonian fluid is essentially a substance that creates resistance when under some form of pressure. Using such fluid in a controller may enhance the overall feeling and experience. Some everyday examples of non-Newtonian fluids are honey, ketchup, and custard, which Sony will obviously not use in a controller! They surely have a better option in their mind.

However, Sony may also decide to drop the idea, if things don’t work out.
