Sony initially filed the patent application with the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), the United Nations&#8217; patents agency, in November 2024. It <a href=\"https:\/\/patentscope.wipo.int\/search\/en\/detail.jsf?docId=WO2026110304&amp;_cid=P12-MPXZ4A-31241-1\">was officially published in May<\/a> this year, as uncovered by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cheathappens.com\/sony_patents_playStation_controller_buttons.asp\">Cheat Happens<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>According to the patent, the controller would adapt &#8211; either based on gameplay or personal preferences &#8211; by  changing the hardness and resistance of the underlying mechanisms that respond to each button press. This is achieved using a  magneto-viscoelastic elastomer, a material capable of hardening and softening based on inputs from attached magnets.<\/p>\n<figure>\n<div class=\"gallery\">\n<div
