Sony Considers Adding Rewind Feature to PlayStation 6 Controller
Sony may be looking to introduce a feature that will allow players to set a specific moment in their game to quickly return to if something goes wrong, with just the press of a button. The recently discovered patent doesn’t confirm that the PlayStation 6 controller will have a dedicated button for this rewind feature, but it does show that Sony has been considering offering this convenience to its players.
Potential Rewind Mode Activation
The Sony document mentions the possibility of activating a “Rewind Mode” while playing, using a dedicated button, which would allow players to go back to a previous point in the game. Similar to the automatically created checkpoints in games, having this feature assigned to a dedicated button on the controller would make it easier for players to quickly rewind to a previous moment and approach the subsequent gameplay differently.
The patent also mentions that the player may simply feel the urge to go back to a specific moment in their game to recall scenes from the narrative or important documents for their understanding of the ongoing events.
