PlayStation might dive into mobile gaming

According to a report by VGC, the Japanese studio has recently filed a patent for two controller grips for mobile. The device mimics PS4’s controller device, instead of the latest DualSense controller associated with the PS5. The drawing shared with the patent has omitted the shaft portion, which can be used to tilt both the cursors in any direction.

This controller could definitely enhance your mobile gaming experience. That said, PS controllers are already capable of connecting with mobile devices via Bluetooth, which makes this patent a bit strange.

Sony had already shared its plan to make a move towards the mobile market. The studio’s head, Jim Ryan, shared some key details about the roadmap to bring iconic titles to the mobile market soon.

“We have been thinking about how players enjoy our content and have had some early success with experimenting with mobile games and apps to provide more choices to gamers. Mobile is just one of the areas we are exploring to reach millions of gamers beyond our platforms.”
