The Medium PS5 trailer shows off some fashionable DualSense features

A new DualSense-focused trailer for The Medium's approaching PS5 spill has arrived, and it's an beguiling look at how the controller elevates the supernatural horror game.

DualSense tricks and haptic feedback can start to feel overstated when every PS5 game under the sun is pushful them – finish me if you've ever seen a game utilise the triggers to mimic bowstring latent hostility – merely The Medium has really pulled out all the stops to pull off some stylish-looking features. That said, the opener is a classic: as protagonist Marianna charges up a spirit blast, the triggers volition reduce simulated tension.

Thankfully, the rest of the lagger shows murder to a lesser extent familiar ideas, some of which remind me of the DualSense magic in PS5 exclusive Returnal, which many regard as one of the best showcases for the tech. When you put up a spirit cuticle to stymy a storm of moths from getting to you, for instance, you'll spirit small, rapid pulses entirely over the controller every bit they collide with your shield. Along the other palm, when you hold your breath spell hiding, you'll feel big pulses to indicate when Marianne will expire of breathing spell. This is further amped sprouted by a trick with the light bar which causes it to flicker in time with Marianne's flashlight when monsters are nigh.

It's not just perception feedback, either. You can use the DualSense touchpad to rotate objects as you audit them for clues, and its built-in gyro sensor ass be used to control the camera in first-person examinations (presumably in case the trusty right pose is MIA). And when you're using tools to cross environmental blockades, the bantam speaker letter-perfect on the DualSense will give off sounds mimicking whatever tool around you'Ra victimisation, from bolt cutters to scalpels.

The Medium will issue forth to PS5 on Sep 3. Check out our full The Mass medium recapitulation for Thomas More on the psychological adventure.
