Sony will drop the DualShock controller for the next PlayStation, according to a new report.
Sources told CVG Sony has tested new controllers with biometric sensors on the grips and an LCD touch-screen.
This information tallies with what Eurogamer has heard from our own sources. We understand that as of six months ago Sony was testing a controller that had an LCD touch-screen on the front and biometrics functionality on the back. These designs, we were told, have changed almost every month, but are for the controller for the next PlayStation.
Biometrics technology captures data from the player's body, such as temperature and heart rate. Half-Life developer Valve has been experimenting with the tech, trying to discover new game experiences that would benefit from it.
Sony did not comment.
The DualShock controller was introduced alongside the original PlayStation in 1997 and has been used for each PlayStation home console since.
It is expected that the PlayStation Vita will be compatible with the next PlayStation. CVG suggests existing PlayStation 3 controllers will work with the console in a similar way that Wii Remotes work with the Wii U.
