The PS4 will support PS3 Move, will not support DualShock 3 controllers

Late last week, Sony Worldwide Studios President Shuhei Yoshida confirmed that some PS3 controllers will work with the PS4, and some will not.

“No, [the PS4] doesn’t support DualShock 3, but it does support PS Move,” Yoshida confirmed with IGN.

As it stands, not a lot of your physically owned PlayStation items will work on the PS4; actually, the same goes for digitally owned items as well. Sony’s confirmed that PSN games and saves will not work on the PS4, though they’re working on a way to correct this now, and Sony also earlier announced that PS3 discs won’t work in the new console either; backwards compatibility will be handled by Gaikai’s streaming service.

About the author

Steve Wright

Steve's the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Stevivor.com, the country’s leading independent video games outlet. Steve arrived in Australia back in 2001 on what was meant to be a three-month working holiday before deciding to emigrate and, eventually, becoming a citizen.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
