God of War Ragnarok
Developer: Studio Santa Monica
In God of War you press the trigger a lot because that’s where your main aim and attack is, so I ended up using low stops for the trigger to make them more like regular buttons. .

In God of War Ragnarök, you want the character to move pretty fast, especially in the middle of a battle, so the left analog stick I set to Quick Settings and I do the opposite with the right analog stick, which is used for camera movement, target, etc.

The DualSense Edge Wireless Controller allows FIFA/FC players to further personalize their FIFA/FC experience, focusing on what matters more to them about the controller. Some players prefer their right stick to be perfectly accurate on Skill Moves, while others prefer specific sensitivity when Switching.

In contrast, others will be pleased with the ability to trigger Sprints faster by adjusting the length of the triggers.
The DualSense Edge controller has been a huge help in my defense game, as I can easily keep the Running Jockey active (L2 + R2) while activating the Contain Team or Switch players using use the new back buttons (like L1 and R1). Having extra buttons on the back of the controller and personalizing them with the command you want can be invaluable when playing a decisive FUT Champions match or rival derby in Career Mode.

Additionally, having the option to remap any button to suit your preferences and adjust trigger sensitivity will give FC fans more control and customization over the experience. their gaming experience. It was definitely a more enjoyable and improved experience.

destiny 2
Developer: Bungie
The DualSense Edge controller is amazing at allowing me to dig deeper into Destiny 2’s top-notch activities on both PvP and PvE! I currently have two main profiles that I switch between Osiris and Raid Trials – and, I have a suitable in-game download to match each. The ability to seamlessly swap between the demands of Destiny 2’s peak activities both in and out of the game has been a game changer!
Andy Salisbury, Senior Social Media Manager, Bungie
As a huge fan of Destiny 2 PvP modes like Iron Banner and Scorched, the ability to map my desired controller settings made it really easy for me to adapt to my particular play style. . If I go into Scorched, I want chaos. Being able to enhance the explosiveness of this mode and then map out exactly how I let that rain of fire down from above using the switchable back options is a great thing. It keeps me going with the flow, keeps me distracted, and allows me to enjoy the utter mayhem that always happens when doing this live mode. With different options for both the front and back of the controller, it’s a more personalized experience, and that personalization means more ways for everyone to play..
