Metro Exodus: Enhanced Edition is the first PC game to exploit the PS5 DualSense Controller

Developer 4A games are re-releasing Metro Exodus for the PC, PS5 (review) and Xbox Series X (review) and Xbox Series S in the form of Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition. While the PC version of the enhanced edition is now available, the console version of Metro Exodus: Enhanced Edition will release on June 18. One of the updates coming to the game on PS5 was support for DualSense features like Adaptive Triggers and Haptic Feedback. It looks like PC players are experiencing these features before PS5 players.

As reported by VGC, the hotfix that was released for Metro Exodus on May 21 brings with it support for the DualSense Controller. The release adds the following:

Fixed issue with DLC Entitlements unlocking incorrectly Fixed issue where Vsync would lock to 60fps even when higher refresh rate is possible Fixed crash in Two Colonels specific to RTX2060 Added PlayStation 5 DualSense Controller support

In our opinion, the DualSense feels like the next step in evolution when it comes to game controllers. Games like Returnal (review), Astro’s Playroom and Resident Evil Village (review) use some of the features of the controller. Even the upcoming Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart is expected to exploit the features of the DualSense. Metro Exodus developers have said, “anyone who’s frantically tried to pump up the pressure on their Tikhar in the middle of a pitched battle will be able to imagine the kind of thing we’re aiming for!” with the DualSense Controller.

It’s nice to see the features of the DualSense controller exploited on a PC game. The more games that support the feature, the more developers will be inclined to implement it. While Astro’s Playroom is the only game that dials the DualSesne features up to 11, it will be interesting to see how other developers implement the feature to add an immersive gaming experience.

This week in Android: It’s weird phone week

We got to play with a lot of cool tech at CES 2019 , but little was cooler than the Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 . Qualcomm had a reference device sporting the new SoC and we were able to put it through its paces , including our very own Speed Test G . The results are impressive. In other big news this week, we found out Motorola is planning on bringing back the Razr phone , made famous in the mid 2000s. We don’t know a lot about the phone itself, but we can make some guesses based on a patent from August of last year. Plus, we look ahead at the future of LG and OnePlus , including a new peculiar accessory for LG . Also, we have good news and bad news about Huawei’s security. Here are your top stories for the week 4:20 – Snapdragon 855 performance and benchmarking: Speed Test G, AnTuTu & Geekbench At CES, Gary Sims previewed the Snapdragon 855 processor in reference hardware.

My product launch wishlist for Instagram, Twitter, Uber and more

‘Twas the night before Xmas, and all through the house, not a feature was stirring from the designer’s mouse . . . Not Twitter! Not Uber, Not Apple or Pinterest! On Facebook! On Snapchat! On Lyft or on Insta! . . . From the sidelines I ask you to flex your code’s might. Happy Xmas to all if you make these apps right. Instagram See More Like This – A button on feed posts that when tapped inserts a burst of similar posts before the timeline continues. Want to see more fashion, sunsets, selfies, food porn, pets, or Boomerangs? Instagram’s machine vision technology and metadata would gather them from people you follow and give you a dose. You shouldn’t have to work through search, hashtags, or the Explore page, nor permanently change your feed by following new accounts. Pinterest briefly had this feature (and should bring it back) but it’d work better on Insta. Web DMs – Instagram’s messaging feature has become the defacto place for sharing memes and trash talk about peopl...

First ever drone-delivered kidney is no worse for wear

Drone delivery really only seems practical for two things: take-out and organ transplants. Both are relatively light and also extremely time sensitive. Well, experiments in flying a kidney around Baltimore in a refrigerated box have yielded positive results — which also seems promising for getting your pad thai to you in good kit. The test flights were conducted by researchers at the University of Maryland there, led by surgeon Joseph Scalea. He has been frustrated in the past with the inflexibility of air delivery systems, and felt that drones represent an obvious solution to the last-mile problem. Scalea and his colleagues modified a DJI M600 drone to carry a refrigerated box payload, and also designed a wireless biosensor for monitoring the organ while in flight. After months of waiting, their study was assigned a kidney that was healthy enough for testing but not good enough for transplant. Once it landed in Baltimore, the team loaded it into the container and had it travel 14 ...
