PlayStation 5 Trophy Videos Actually Record Audio from DualSense Mic

Several PlayStation 5 players have recently discovered that when the console records a video due to unlocking a trophy, it actually records the audio from the controller’s mic.

Some redditors have recently discovered this functionality and have accidentally recorded quite the high-volumed voices exclaiming victory in popular video game remake Demon’s Souls. Redditor Helloiamjack was surprised that his victory cry was recorded by the DualSense mic and now it is forever bound with the trophy he earned.

First time Souls player. I didn’t realise that the PS5 records your microphone’s audio whenever you get a trophy. Whoops. from PS5

Another user also confirmed that he had a similar experience. SCOUSETOMO2003 checked the trophies he earned recently and found out that there were videos with the audio recording of his voice in high volume.

Seen a post about first time souls player not realising his mic was on… me too bro… this was about my 15th attempt! Didn’t know the mic was on at the end haha from PS5

This could be memorable for others, but this could be problematic especially for those who celebrate with less-friendly words. It would be embarrassing as well for them. There are options to turn this functionality off, but that would depend on the player.

PlayStation 5 is now available worldwide.

Thanks VG247!
