PS5 news? Sony's patented joystick with touch screen, look at the picture!

Sony Interactive Entertainment America, the company's PlayStation brand, has registered a touchscreen game controller with the US Patent Office.

It could be a brand new version of DualShock 4 However, considering the fact that the current regulator does not have such a battery life, the use of a touch screen probably only takes a few hours.

The following description includes this image:

The invention relates to a control unit for wireless connection to a computing device, comprising: a housing defined by a main body, a first extension extending from a first end of the main body and a second extension extending from a second end of the main body. extends the first extension and the second extension for retention respectively by a first hand and a second hand of a user; a touch screen defined along the upper surface of the main body between the first extension and the second extension; a first set of buttons disposed on the upper surface of the main body near the first extension and on a first side of the touch screen; and a second set of buttons disposed on the upper surface of the main body near the second extension and on a second side of the touch screen.

Is this already the case? DualShock 5? Should Sony decide that name? On the other hand, it could also be a patent, but we will never see the finished product.
