Exactly the same here. I have Xbox credit and I'm waiting for confirmation that there's no haptics support on Valhalla before preordering.
Pretty sure I heard that Deathloop is doing this.

Crossposting this from the PlayStation studios thread. I don't know if y'all noticed this:
Hopefully mutli plat games will support the DS5 features otherwise you might as well play them on Series X. I have a feeling only first party games might bother to put in the extra time with controller features.
This is great news, audio quality trough jack was one of the flaws of DS4. Really glad they improved on this
Yeap, but of all the DualSense videos I've watched YongYea's is arguably still the most detailed. He actually explains what specific sort of vibrations, trigger mechanics etc are causing each of the many different sensations.
We'll have to see how support develops going forward, but among announced games, there are many big third parties supporting Dualsense features. CoD, Fifa, DiRT, Watch Dogs, Madden, NBA2K1... many more third party than first party games.
Of course, the quality of the implementations might also vary, and it's quite possible that first party games will handle it with more thought. But hopefully third parties that are supporting it are doing good things with it. I suppose we'll find out when the embargos lift on these games.
I'm hoping big/small developers now also implementing gyro-aim.
Huge game such as Call of Duty not even doing this for DualShock 4... : /

That's awesome. No wonder people have been speaking about updated audio quality from the controller. The more and more I learn about it, the more I'm surprised it's (thankfully) only $10 more than the Dualshock 4. It's absolutely stacked with so many new and better features.
Side note, do we know which RealTek studio chip this is?
I just checked a few more teardowns, sadly none of them had a high enough quality shot for me to make out the text on the chip. What I did notice though is that the small chip above the one with the Realtek logo has a "Realtek" text on it. That's two chips dedicated to sound, yay! :)
You're in luck, the devs behind Deathloop are doing this very thing.
EDIT: Didn't see all the other posts saying the same thing!
Just took mine apart since I couldn't find a clear shot anywhere. Realtek chip text is as follows: ALC5524 K4W28G1 GK19. Here is the photo I took where you can see all the chips.
Absolutely. What it looks to add to the gameplay experience is truly unique and transformative. I think people would be lying to themselves if they say all of this stuff packed into the controller is less conductive to a dramatically better gameplay experience than some minor resolution differences in multiplatform games.
There are 39 announced games supporting the DualSense, and there definitely aren't 39 first-party games announced for the PS5. This is already way better developer support than previous Sony peripherals and I think that's partly to do with how practical and game-changing these features are and how easy it is to integrate them at a basic level, which allows them to dig deeper with less effort.
You're the hero we needed. Thanks!
Weirdly, googling Realtek ALC5524 doesn't give any real results. Is this a new / custom chip?
Whilst I couldn't find the exact chip, I did find this on the ALC5520, which is presumably an older or slightly less competent variant based on the numbering.
Realtek's far-field multi-microphone speech recognition enhanced single-chip solution (ALC5520) won the 2018 ``Hsinchu Science Industrial Park Excellent Manufacturer Innovative Product Award''
2018/12/12
[Hsinchu, Taiwan, December 12, 2018]
Realtek Semiconductor , the world's leading IC design company, today announced that its far-field multi-microphone speech recognition enhanced single-chip solution (ALC5520) won the 2018 "Hsinchu Science Industrial Park Excellent Manufacturer Innovation" Product Award".
Realtek ALC5520 audio/voice signal processor (Audio/Voice DSP) is a system-on-a-chip that realizes a complete solution for long-distance voice applications. The chip integrates 103dB high signal-to-noise ratio (Signal-to-Noise Ratio) low-power analog-to-digital converter (Analog to Digital Converter), 32-bit multi-core DSP+vFPU and Realtek's latest generation of voice enhancement technology, which greatly improves in noisy/ Voice recognition performance in long-distance (over 10 meters) environments.
Realtek ALC5520 provides a complete solution with ultra-low power consumption and high integration, with a competitive QFN8x8mm package size, showing the following technologies and market advantages:
● complete solution distance speech applications
● 103dB high SNR (Signal-to-Noise Ratio) low power analog to digital converter (the ADC)
● over 32 high-performance core + VFPU the DSP
● low power consumption
● in Provides excellent voice recognition enhancement in noisy/long-distance environments
● Simplified peripheral parts and minimized PCB size reference design
● Easy upgrade/addition of voice input and recognition functions for various products and applications
Realtek's spokesperson Huang Yiwei, vice president, said: "The high-efficiency and extremely low-power design makes the ALC5520 widely suitable for applications that require voice input and recognition, such as smart speakers/smart TVs/mobile devices/white goods/car electronics.
Realtek The ALC5520 not only establishes a higher standard for enhanced speech recognition, but also assists the rapid popularization of speech technology in various industrial products."
This is the best preview so far, Sony made the Nintendo fan in me salivate with impatience to get a PS5. Bravo.
The 3.5mm is, in my opinion, good and improved over the DS4. The mic is clear, but lacking in bass compared to higher quality mics (for instance my Antlion modmic and my Yeti both sound noticeably more full). But we haven't heard any samples of the mic being recorded with any potential noise cancellation/processing that the PS5 will probably end up doing.
The amount of technology they stuffed into this thing is kinda staggering.Whilst I couldn't find the exact chip, I did find this on the ALC5520, which is presumably an older or slightly less competent variant based on the numbering.

Sennheiser HD598s, BLON BL-03s, and an old pair of Bose OEs.
Oh absolutely lol, I knew there'd be no contest. Just trying to help them feel a bit more justified for purchasing a headset with a likely better dedicated microphone.
DualSense mic hype!! That must be part of why it sounds so good.Whilst I couldn't find the exact chip, I did find this on the ALC5520, which is presumably an older or slightly less competent variant based on the numbering.

This is exactly the type of stuff Ive been looking for. Theres a lot of focus on the haptics and whatnot right now but Im really, really curious about the wired headphone capabilities when plugged direct into the controller. HOpefully we get more detailed stuff soon.Whilst I couldn't find the exact chip, I did find this on the ALC5520, which is presumably an older or slightly less competent variant based on the numbering.

The specs for audio output are indeed better than the DS4: 48 kHz/16 bit (dualsense) vs 32 kHz/16bit (DS4). Basically cd quality vs radio/tv quality.
Fortnite support!
Fortnite will be getting DualSense support
www.epicgames.com
Day 1 Ready: Fortnite Arrives Next Week on Xbox Series X|S and PS5
A next-gen version of Fortnite will be launching alongside the next-gen Xbox Series X, S, and PS5 consoles. Here’s what you can expect!
www.epicgames.com
Really impressive kit they stuffed in there for the trigger system. (surprised there's no plastic grease in there though)
I want an in depth interview with a dev talking about how complicated it is to implement the Dualsense features.
One thing I realized from an accessibility point of view the rumble is so good for the blind as well.
We had a dev here from Activision who said it is very easy to implement and that it will be shocking if it is not widely supported in a years time. The tech is fantastic.
I'm guessing there would be a series of variations named ALC55xx with different number of channels.Whilst I couldn't find the exact chip, I did find this on the ALC5520, which is presumably an older or slightly less competent variant based on the numbering.

They need 3 inputs (front mic, cancellation mic, headset connector mic) and at least 3 outputs (headset stereo, built-in speaker), and possibly they would use two more outputs to drive the voice-coils. It depends what the main SIE custom chip can do. They only need the realtek for really high quality audio, so only mics and headset, but if the channels are there, might as well use them for anything that needs a DAC.
The charging dock is 14 watts (2.8A, 5V).
That would be enough to charge two controllers in parallel to 80% in 30 mins or something around that.
Well Fortnite just announced they are supporting it on their Next-Gen update post.
Yes, noise cancellation will be good indeed.Whilst I couldn't find the exact chip, I did find this on the ALC5520, which is presumably an older or slightly less competent variant based on the numbering.

Yup, I do plan on double dipping(down the line)on the ones I consider to be classics. MS bc solution is something I really like.
Yeah I was a primary PS3 user and have double dipped so much on the 360 versions because their BC is just top notch. We really got it made in gaming on all sides now.
As they saying goes. "We're all eating next gen". :P
I want to feel the BB connection. :0
My roomate has bigger hands, and doesn't really enjoy the L1, R1 buttons specifically as much as the DS4. He think they are harder to hit.
Me (who has very medium, average sized hands) thinks its a massive improvment.
