Do third-party PS5 controllers have haptic feedback?

Only modified DualSense controllers (HexGaming) retain haptic feedback and adaptive triggers. Third-party controllers (Scuf, Victrix, 8BitDo) lack these features because Sony does not license the technology.

Will third-party controllers get me banned on PSN?

No. All controllers on this list are tournament-legal and PSN-compatible. They use standard Bluetooth or licensed connections. Sony does not ban for using third-party controllers.
