PS5 System Update Adds Multi-Device DualSense Pairing & Power Saver

The structure of the article should remain the same, so headings, lists, tables, and other elements must retain their original hierarchy. The tone needs to be professional and journalistic, so I’ll avoid colloquial language and ensure clarity.

For the pairing instructions, the ordered lists and steps need to be translated accurately. Terms like “botão PS” become “PS button,” “botão triangular” as “Triangle button,” etc. I have to make sure the button names are correctly capitalized and match PlayStation’s official terminology.

The table in the middle needs careful translation. The headers are straightforward, but the example devices like “PS5 Pro” and “iPhone” should stay as they are. The footnote links at the end, except the psxbrasil one, should remain.

The Power Saver section mentions “Road to Zero” and emission targets. I’ll ensure that proper nouns like “Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi)” are correctly translated and the context remains clear.

I should also check for any remaining psxbrasil links in the footnotes. The third footnote has a link to Sony’s sustainability report, which is fine. Any other links in the document that aren’t from psxbrasil.com.br should stay.

After translating, I’ll review the HTML to ensure no tags are broken or misplaced. All images should have their original src attributes, except if they were from psxbrasil, which they aren’t in this case. The example image link points to blog.playstation.com, so it’s okay.

Finally, I’ll do a thorough read-through to catch any grammatical errors or inconsistencies, making sure the translation flows naturally in American English while preserving all technical details accurately. Once everything checks out, the translation should meet all the user’s requirements.

Many PS5 accessories, including the DualSense wireless controller, are designed to support multiple devices beyond PS5, including PC, Mac, and mobile devices. We believe enabling cross-platform compatibility for our accessories creates a more flexible and seamless gaming experience.

As part of this initiative, we’re excited to announce that the latest beta version of the PS5 system update introduces a new feature allowing DualSense and DualSense Edge wireless controllers to be paired with multiple devices simultaneously, making it easier to switch between them without repeated pairing.

Additionally, we’re sharing new details about Power Saver for Games – a new mode enabling compatible PS5 games to run with reduced energy consumption and environmental impact – which will launch later.

While beta access is limited to invited participants in select countries*, we plan to roll out the update globally in coming months. Selected beta participants will receive an email invitation tomorrow when it becomes available. Some beta features may change or be omitted from the final release.

Here are the feature details:

Pairing DualSense Wireless Controllers With Multiple Devices

Previously, users needed to re-pair controllers when switching between devices like PC, Mac, or mobile.

This update lets users register up to four devices simultaneously and switch between them directly from the controller. For example, you can seamlessly transition from PS5 to PC gaming or connect to smartphones for PS5 Remote Play. This enhanced flexibility empowers gaming across multiple platforms.

How to Pair Your Controller With Multiple Devices

By pressing combinations of the PS button and face buttons (Triangle/Circle/Cross/Square), users can assign devices to specific slots.

Disconnect any USB cables before pairing.

1. Ensure the controller’s light bar and player indicator are off. If lit, hold the PS button until they turn off.
2. Hold one face button (Triangle/Circle/Cross/Square) + PS button for over 5 seconds. The light bar and player indicator will flash twice.
3. Enable Bluetooth on your device and select “Add Bluetooth device.” Your device will detect nearby controllers.
4. Select your controller from detected devices. The light bar will illuminate, with player indicators showing slot number via blinks.

How to Switch Between Devices

After device registration, switch between paired devices by pressing PS button + corresponding face button, whether the controller is on or off.

1. Power on the target device
2. Hold the corresponding face button + PS button for ~3 seconds. Release when light bar/player indicator flashes. Player lights will blink to indicate slot number.
