Sony Computer Entertainment Europe confirms the arrival of the eagerly awaited DUALSHOCK®3 Wireless Controller for PS3.
Sony Computer Entertainment Europe (SCEE) has announced that the DUALSHOCK 3 Wireless Controller will be available for PLAYSTATION 3 in Europe from July 2, 2008. The eagerly awaited wireless controller with vibration function will put truly responsive gaming power into players’ hands, shaking up gaming experiences when it arrives on PS3 this summer.
It’s not what you see – it’s what you feel that makes DUALSHOCK 3 the first choice for all game players. DUALSHOCK 3 puts some serious power into existing and future PS3 titles, with its vibration function offering even more interactive play with many games – past, present and future – which support the vibration functionality. DUALSHOCK 3 also retains the high-precision, high-response motion-sensitive aspects that have made the SIXAXIS Wireless Controller so popular.
David Reeves, President and CEO, Sony Computer Entertainment Europe, commented, "We are delighted to confirm that DUALSHOCK 3 will be released in SCEE territories in early July. We hope this will add to the intense gaming experience for our fans, as we continue to evolve PS3, its software and its peripherals.”
Almost all future PS3 releases will support the DUALSHOCK 3 Wireless Controller, and the controller is already compatible with many existing PS3 titles (system software update 1.94 or later required). Face the heart-pounding fear of alien warfare in Resistance: Fall of Man, hold tight as you tear through the streets of Gran Turismo 5 Prologue, or feel the thrill of treasure hunting in Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune – your favourite PS3 games like you’ve never experienced them before.
Making your game experience more immersive, more intuitive and more realistic, the DUALSHOCK 3 Wireless Controller is the only Bluetooth controller combining vibration function and SIXAXIS Wireless Controller features, and the first choice for anyone wanting to get the most out of their PS3 game experience.
