Microsoft asked Xbox Series X and S users if they need PlayStation 5’s DualSense controller features

Microsoft certainly wants to know if gamers are happy with the new Xbox Series X console, and wants to explore preferences and suggestions on how to improve the overall experience. A survey was conducted among Xbox Series X and S buyers that revealed some interesting questions about the company’s vision for the future of these systems.

Among the set of standard questions, such as assessing the level of satisfaction since the purchase of a set-top box, there are several quite interesting topics. For example, Microsoft asks if the Xbox Series X feels like a next-gen system, apparently due to criticism that users have voiced against both Xbox consoles since launch.

Even more surprising is the question in which Microsoft asks if users need any of the PlayStation controllers’ capabilities on Xbox controllers? The company is even separately interested in what kind of functionality players need?

The new Xbox Wireless Controller is an improved and improved version of the previous controller, primarily featuring a D-Pad, textured grips and triggers, and a dedicated Share button. While it visually looks like an Xbox One controller at first glance, it would be wrong to say that the Xbox Series X controller hasn’t changed.

And yet, Sony has gone much further with its DualSense controller for PS5: the device has received adaptive triggers, the resistance of which can change depending on the gameplay (for example, when firing a pistol or rifle), as well as advanced haptic feedback, which with vibration, it can create a range of effects that enhance the immersion in the game. Perhaps Microsoft has already appreciated these advantages and is preparing its own analogue?

Microsoft also asked what players think of the console’s home screen user interface, which has undergone a lot of changes over the life of the Xbox One but changed little when the Xbox Series X and S were launched? The key difference is the dynamic background, which was not present on older Xbox consoles.

Microsoft has already borrowed innovations from competitors’ controllers, such as adding a headphone jack to the Xbox One controller and a share button after both were well received in the PS4’s DualShock 4. There is no doubt that responsive triggers and improved haptic feedback will make the Xbox Wireless Controller better, but ultimately it will depend on how many users need these features.
