Sony is toying with the thought of including a devoted rewind button to PlayStation controllers sooner or later, if a patent submitting is something to go by. The appliance was submitted in early 2023, however was solely simply printed on October 31, 2024.
Sony’s rationale for a rewind button on PlayStation controllers
As noticed by Tech4Gamers, Sony argues in its patent submitting that permitting customers to rewind throughout dwell gameplay will permit them to overview essential parts, ought to they should. For instance, the corporate described a situation during which gamers are given “essential info” for a quest that they might have forgotten components of.
“In some unspecified time in the future through the dwell gameplay, the participant might have forgotten parts of or the entire info, and should want to revisit their current gameplay,” the submitting reads. “This may occasionally happen when the participant decides to carry out the search later, and has forgotten sure particulars of the search when the participant in the end tries to finish the search.”
