I fail to see why one is needed. They work via Bluetooth. They also work via a regular USB-C cable if the features you want are not supported wirelessly. There is no reason for it to need a special dongle.
What is needed more than hardware is the developers of games to utilize whatever tools Sony has provided to add the support for things like haptics and triggers to their game. It’s not impossible to have adaptive triggers with the wireless connection; almost every major game releaeed in 2025 and 2026 has native support for it. Many games released prior have also updated to include native DualSense support over BT.
Steam could also help here, adding in a new translation layer thing so Steam Input can provide the same functionality as a wired connection and not report it as an Xbox controller. You can already do this with DS4Windows.
