The firmware app for DualSense on PC has been completely updated and the UI has been revamped. It’s now called PlayStation Accessories and allows you to customize your DualSense Edge controller’s button mapping, stick sensitivity, and more right on your PC.
The biggest new feature is the ability to create, edit, and switch between custom controller profiles on PC. This is exclusive to the DualSense Edge. If you’re using a regular DualSense on your computer, you can only use the app to download firmware updates.
Starting today, PC gamers can unleash the full customizable power of the DualSense Edge controller right on their computer.

In these profiles, you can change button assignments, adjust stick sensitivity and deadzones, change the intensity of the vibration and trigger effect, and fine-tune trigger deadzones. Profiles are saved on the controller itself, so you can transfer your settings to your PS5 and back to your PC. You can switch profiles by holding down the Fn button on your controller and then pressing the face button that corresponds to your profile. Once you switch profiles, your controller will vibrate a certain number of times depending on the profile you choose. In the controller settings, you can also change what your controller does when you switch profiles.
In other PlayStation news, a new report suggested that a PS5 Pro could be released later this year, possibly being announced at a State of Play in September. As has long been rumored, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle will be coming to PlayStation 5 a few months after its release on Xbox and PC.
