From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.God of War Ragnarök is nearly here, and PlayStation is celebrating the highly anticipated launch with a brand new dualsense controller.
The PS5’s dualsense controller is our favourite accessory for the console, and this edition is the first released by the gaming giant to be tied in to a particular game, having previously released a range of different coloured controllers for the PlayStation 5 console.
Unlike the other controllers on offer, the Ragnarök edition features a two-tone colourway, as well as a logo featuring a bear and wolf on the touchpad, representing the game’s two main characters, Kratos and his son Atreus.
The game is being released on 9 November 2022 alongside the new controller and while pre-orders for the game have been live for a while, pre-orders for the new controller are now live.

The God of War Ragnarök edition of the dualsense controller has all the same features of the version that comes bundled with the console, namely haptic vibration functionality as well as adaptive triggers that can increase and release tension, depending on the player’s actions. As one of the biggest PlayStation exclusives to come out this year, expect Ragnarök to make excellent use of the hardware’s features with bowstring pulls and Leviathan axe throws.
In our review of the dualsense controller, our writer said: “Besides looking and feeling good, it also has some useful features, such as haptic feedback, which is a form of far superior vibration, and a set of trigger buttons that are much more responsive and tactile than previous PlayStation controllers. It’s the natural next step for a PlayStation controller and it’s arguably the best thing about the console.”
There is a product listing at Game as well as the PlayStation store page, but if they are made available at other retailers, we’ll be sure to keep you updated.
