Starfield Players Are Really Trying to Pretend It's On PlayStation

Starfield is now available on PC and as an Xbox Series X and S console exclusive, but some players are really trying to pretend it's on PlayStation 5 too.
From using the DualSense controller to play the game, to creating custom "limited edition" Starfield PS5s, and even modding in the PlayStation Studios intro, some users have seemingly taken Bethesda's Xbox exclusivity hard.
Players can use the PS5's DualSense controller to play Starfield quite easily, of course, since the game is on PC and the DualSense is a fully supported gamepad there. Redditor aqkj questioned a Facebook advert showing a Starfield player using the PS5 controller before many fans commented they'd be doing the exact same with the PC version.
Ironically, upon the early access launch of Starfield on September 1, some users did have trouble getting their PS5 controller to work with the game, though this has an easy fix of downloading the DualSense app.
Blarzek on Reddit took the emulation one step further by customising their PS5 and controller to look like a special Starfield edition (above). The DualSense in particular looks like an official PlayStation version of the real Xbox limited edition gamepad, but the console is fully customised to match.
Finally, to really drive the idea home, PC players can now mod in the PlayStation Studios intro into Starfield, so it matches the likes of PS5 console exclusives The Last of Us Part 1 and Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart.
Chachinito on modding website Nexus Mods uploaded the Starfield PlayStation Studio Splash Screen mod, which replaces actual developer Bethesda's opening. This can be paired with EASKATER's PS5 Icons mod, which replaces Xbox button prompts with PlayStation buttons. Y becomes Triangle, RT becomes R2, and so on.
Starfield has been flooded with mods even ahead of its official launch on September 6, with its one million plus players inventing new ways to play the space epic. While some of these, like the PlayStation Studios splash screen, are on the sillier side, others look to address issues with the base version of the game.
DLSS support and an FOV slider was added the first day Starfield became available, for example, while others have revamped what's considered a frustrating inventory UI system. It's not all been fun and games, however, as a debate was also sparked over paid mods.
In our 7/10 review, IGN said: "Starfield has a lot of forces working against it, but eventually the allure of its expansive roleplaying quests and respectable combat make its gravitational pull difficult to resist."
