The shooting attachment, designed to place the PlayStation Move motion controller horizontally, will allow players to hold the motion controller as if they are holding a gun and to easily aim at an in-game target. The trigger on the attachment is interlocked with the motion controller "T" button and will enable users to intuitively play the game, not only limited to shooting games but also on games that may require precise button input and control. It will work with software titles like The Shoot! by SCE and Time Crises: Razing Storm by Bandai Namco Games which are expected to support the attachment. The shooting attachment will become available starting this fall in each region at a RRP of EUR14.99, US$19.99 and 1,480 yen (including tax), respectively.

Bringing in SCE's expertise in both entertainment and technology acquired from developing games, four sound fields of the speaker system have been designed with the help of SCE's game sound designers, to optimize the cinematic experience of all forms of entertainment.
The Surround Sound System comes with two audio inputs - an optical audio input for connecting entertainment systems, including PS3, and an analog audio input for connecting portable devices like PSP. System form factor features a sleek and casual design that matches with PS3.
