Sony has announced that the PlayStation Access controller will release on December 6, with pre-orders going live on July 21.
As detailed on the PlayStation Blog, the PS5 accessibility controller, formally known as Project Leonardo, will be hitting shelves just before Christmas. While we don’t know which specific retailers will stock the controller, we do know that it’ll come with a price tag of $89.99 USD, which converts to roughly $130 AUD.
The controller kit will include the following components:
- Analog stick caps (standard, dome and ball stick cap)
- Button caps in different shapes and sizes, including:
- Pillow button caps
- Flat button caps
- Wide flat button cap (which covers two button sockets)
- Overhang button caps (which benefit players with smaller hands as they are positioned closer to the centre)
- Curve button caps (which can be pushed if placed along the top or pulled if placed along the bottom of the controller)
- Swappable button cap tags for players to easily mark which inputs they map to each button
A new trailer for the controller also dropped alongside this announcement, highlighting its features and capabilities. You can watch that trailer here:
