First time on a PS5 controller?

Four things to know before you pick up the DualSense.

The four face buttons

They sit on the right. Every game gives them different jobs, so pick your game above and check.

LR

The two sticks

The left stick usually moves your character and the right stick usually moves the camera. Pressing a stick in is called L3 or R3.

Bumpers and triggers

L1 and R1 are the buttons on top. L2 and R2 are the triggers underneath, and they respond to how far you press.

TouchpadCreateOptions

The middle buttons

The touchpad also clicks. Create is on its left and Options is on its right. The PS button in the centre opens the PS5 Control Center.
