So does this apply to the Xbox One controller too? It was rumored that Xbox had this type of feature, turns out it was PS4, but maybe both?

The Xbox One's controller has 4 motors.  One in the base of each lower corner, then one on each of the triggers.

So you feel fine tuned movements on your trigger fingers.


Is that confirmed? If so the rumor I am referred to was misplaced on the Xbox One controller. Not that the X1 won't be using similar tech for the intensity, size, and low power usage but it doesn't sound like it has a multiple vibration set up. Despite the X1 having vibration in the triggers for force feedback, the programmable feedback in the DS4 will be a nice feature, though a shame they wouldn't have thrown one into the triggers along with it.

As far as the trigger buttons having rumble motors, yes it is confirmed. Both controllers have significant improvements in their rumble features. They're just doing it in different ways. The one minor downside to what Microsoft did by adding small rumble motors in the triggers is that it made the triggers very bulky when compared to the Xbox 360 controller. It's one of the complaints I've heard in regards to how the controller feels. Again though, a minor inconvenience for the most part. From everything I've read, which controller did better in its improvements to the rumble feature will be a matter of preference. Considering the features the Dualshock 4 is loaded with along with the already great improvements to  its rumble feature, I'd say lacking rumble motors in the triggers is rather insignificant.
