The light bar is also the source of the DualShock 4's move functionality, which helps the PS4 with functions such as determining where the player is located within the room. If you disconnect your DualShock 4 and for some reason the light turns white, hold the ps button for 15 seconds and the controlller will reset.

It has been confirmed via twitter that the up to 4 PS4 controllers can be used at once which is surprising because thats less than what the PS3 supported. Instead you will have to use the one included with your system, buy a new one or simply charge the controllers seperately. Note that if you're purchasing the Dualshock 4 seperately for an extra controller, it does not come with a micro-USB cable to charge. The start and select buttons are replaced by share and option keys that flank on the top of the touchpad.

The PlayStation 4's controller is called the DualShock 4, and is the most drastic redesign of the PlayStation controller since the introduction of the DualShock. It features capacitive touch input, like that of the PS Vita, improved SixAxis motion sensing, a brightly-colored "Light Bar", speaker on the controller, and at 7.4 ounces, the controller weighs less than an ounce more than the Dualshock 3 (6.74 ounces).
