One of the significant advancements introduced by the PlayStation 5 is its enhanced haptic feedback system. This includes adaptive triggers that dynamically adjust their resistance and travel distance to simulate various in-game actions and enhance immersion. While this feature can add depth to gameplay, it may not always be desirable for competitive gaming or situations where quick and precise trigger inputs are crucial.
To address this, the PlayStation 5 provides an option to disable adaptive triggers. This ensures that the triggers behave consistently and provide predictable feedback, allowing players to focus on their performance without any potential hindrance from the triggers’ resistance or variable travel distance. Here’s how you can disable adaptive triggers on your PlayStation 5 controllers:
1. Navigate to the PS5 home screen.
2. Select the settings menu by clicking the gear icon in the top-right corner.
3. Scroll down and select “Accessories.”
4. Select the controller you want to adjust.
5. Select “Trigger Effect Intensity.”
6. Select “Off” to completely disable adaptive triggers.
This setting change will only apply to the currently connected controller. If you have multiple controllers, you’ll need to repeat these steps individually for each controller.
By disabling adaptive triggers, you can optimize the controller’s response for competitive gaming or scenarios where precise and consistent trigger inputs are essential. This ensures that you can fully concentrate on your gameplay without any potential interference from the triggers’ dynamic behavior.
