It’s been several months since the PS5 first launched, and many members of the gaming community have enjoyed their time with the console so far. Although, now that the console is out, a lot of people seem to forget how long the PS5 had been in production, and the large volume of fan speculation that went into when it was going to release and what it was going to look like. Now, a couple of the original design patents for the PS5 have surfaced online and show a couple of points of contention compared to the final product.
It’s almost hard to believe that back in 2018 and 2019, any kind of update regarding the development of the PS5 was a godsend to the gaming community. After Sony revealed the PS5 hardware specs back in April of 2019, it would take the company a whole year before finally unveiling the more desired details with regards to the console, such as its design, game library, and release date. However, the original design patents for the system and its controller show a lot more.
To start, the PS5 DualSense controller patent featured a bunch of detailed sketches of the controller design, which feature the controller’s various implementations, such as adaptive triggers, haptic feedback, and removable faceplates. Curiously, one of the sketches also includes a bright purple control stick. It’s possible that this could allude to different controller variants in the future.
In addition to the controller, the design patent for the PS5 itself has also surfaced. The patent includes the console’s many intricate facets, including its removable base and faceplates. The removable faceplates have led to a number of memorable user-customized PS5 console designs. The patents for the PS5 Media Remote, Pulse 3D Headset, and the DualSense Charging Station were also shown.
It’s interesting to see how these patents illustrate the process by which the PS5 was created, but some of the details included in the patents do lead to some speculation. The purple control stick could allude to other controller variants releasing in the future, or maybe the DualSense controller was originally supposed to feature that color. The DualSense controller is also customizable given its removable faceplate.
In any case, it will be interesting to see what the future holds for the console moving forward. At the moment, it’s hard for practically anyone to get their hands on a console given the fluctuating nature of the PS5 stock featured in various retailers. Once the hype dies down, perhaps Sony will be able to expand upon what the console can do.
