The Astro C40 controller is an excellent pro controller for pro gamers or even gamers who are really serious on PS4 that want to be able to have something that is as similar to what the Xbox Elite Series controller is. The controller came out before this controller and was fantastic, but it has lost a bit of its cool and great and is still an excellent controller that is above average for sure.

The issue is that Sony made the decision to destroy older controllers under the so called"progress" name. Astro, the company, has made an appearance on Reddit through a representative, saying that it's because of Sony that they cannot upgrade the controller. The controller does not work for PlayStation 5 with PlayStation 5 games, however, it does work when playing PlayStation 4 titles .

Apart from them responding to such a sexy user name, I applaud them for replying and telling us. This link for the post is located on the image or click here . I personally will not be able to find a PS5 anytime soon so I'm not too worried however, personally I like the feeling and feel of using the Astro C40 controller over it. Sony PS5 controller and the tactile feedback sounds great and the game's capabilities are changing to a certain extent however it's not a necessity.

My issue with PS5 controller is the fact that it does not have paddles and notes.io the joysticks have been constructed in a way I find unsatisfactory since I personally preference to that Xbox Controller joystick layout a lot more.

There is hope , however and as I mentioned at the start of this article, I'll answer the question How To Utilize the Astro C40 Tournament Controller on PS5 because it's possible. It is possible to use the Astro C40 controller for the PS5 when playing PS4 games, but to play those PS5 games, you'll to need to use a third party device called The Cronus Zen.

This little device will allow you to use your Astro C40 TR controller on PS5's new PS5 natively. I suggest you read the article of the details and then decide whether it is worth the purchase. Personally, I'll probably go for it once I purchase a PS5 and will share my findings to you via SLA and my personal YouTube channel so stick around.

At the moment, I'm hoping that Sony will be able to recognize that not all games will want to or are going to use the new haptic feedback feature. They appear to be determined to make sure that all games do and I don't blame them. I don't want to have an Apple 3D Touch situation on their hands. And the technology is quite cool.

It's only that I know it is not a must and it is not something that you truly need in the majority of games, so requiring everybody to have use it or the controller doesn't seem right to me. If I decide to purchase the PlayStation 5 they might have already changed their mind and we'll wait and see. At present, all we have is our current Cronus Zen as well as PS4 games that are for our PS5 controller life.
