The new PS5 owners’ guide to great gaming experiences

Your DualSense controller and you

The first thing you’ll touch after you press the PS5 console’s power button will likely be the DualSense wireless controller. This sleek and ergonomic controller will not only be the way you interact with games, but also has a host of immersive features. Let’s break it down:

Touch pad: In the center of the console is a touchpad. Some games use the touch pad via swiping motions or as a touch-based cursor. More commonly, the touch pad can be pressed the same way you press any other button.

Haptic Feedback: Get absorbed into game worlds with advanced controller sensations. In many games you’ll feel every recoil, bounce, and shake, from subtle to seismic.

Adaptive triggers: The L2 and R2 buttons of the DualSense controller will change tension based on what’s happening in game for unprecedented immersion. Feel the resistance as your character pulls back a bow string or fires a weapon.

Create button: Save your greatest gaming memories, be they epic wins or hilarious fails, with the touch of a button. You can save screenshots, movie clips, and more, and share them online with friends or with the world.

The Legend of Tianding

Set in the early 20th Century during the Japanese rule of Taiwan, there existed a legendary hero known as Tianding, who fought the corrupt elite, took from the wealthy, and saved the common folk. You can enjoy fast-paced, side-scrolling action through beautiful, artistically rendered Taiwanese scenery. The game also features various historical documents of the period, which is very interesting.

How Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League loadout options enable customizable chaos

Game Ace Pro 0 0

On February 2 – Harley Quinn, Deadshot, King Shark, and Captain Boomerang will be unleashed into the streets of Metropolis, with the impossible task of defeating the world’s greatest superheroes in Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League.

How Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League loadout options enable customizable chaos

In the latest episode of our Suicide Squad Insider video series, we give you an in-depth look at the customization options that allow you to personalize your experience and bring the chaos any way you want.

If Harley Quinn, King Shark, Deadshot, and Captain Boomerang are to have any chance against a corrupted Justice League, they’re going to need a little help from their friends. Although reluctant colleagues might be more accurate, Amanda Waller has forcibly enlisted a whole team of misfits to support, assist, and power up Task Force X, whether they like it or not.

While he is a long way from the mean streets of Gotham, Penguin has still managed to make a name for himself in Metropolis as the authority on anti-Metahuman weaponry. Need a punchier shotgun, a more explosive grenade, a bendier boomerang? Penguin’s got you covered.

Mechanical genius Toyman is a self-confessed Superman super-fan. Which is what makes using his skills to help defeat the Man of Steel even more painful. Still, no time for moral grey areas with a bomb in your neck, which is why Toyman will help the Squad tinker, customize, and optimize their weapons. From bonus critical damage on your sniper rifle, to extra Shield Harvest chances on a tanky build, it’s clear Toyman isn’t playing games.

And the most surprising member of all… Ivy! After Poison Ivy’s demise at the hands of Scarecrow, she has been reborn and captured by Lex Luthor. She then escaped and is now using her knowledge of plants to create elemental weapons for the Squad. Despite having no memories of her past life, she remembers how to make some mean spores, as she can set enemies ablaze, freeze them to the bone, or electrocute an entire horde, guaranteeing critical hits against them.
