The PlayStation Portal is a handheld gaming accessory for the PlayStation 5, developed by Sony Interactive Entertainment, first released on November 15, 2023.[10] It is used to stream video games and other media from a PlayStation 5 via the Portal's Wi-Fi connection using Remote Play technology. The Portal is able to control the console using its own built-in screen and DualSense-like controller[11][12] styled like a handheld game console,[13] although it does not run any games or media natively on its own.[14]
Hardware and technicals
The PlayStation Portal's main hardware features include an 8-inch LCD HD screen and "all of the buttons and features of a DualSense controller".[15] It runs on a Snapdragon 662 system-on-chip.[16] Software-wise it runs on a heavily modified version of Android 13.[16] Unlike the Nintendo Switch or Sony's own previous PlayStation Vita and PlayStation Portable, the PlayStation Portal is not a standalone game console and only functions as a streaming receiver for PlayStation 5.[17][18] In November 2024, Sony rolled out test versions of the device's software to give cloud gaming access to players with PlayStation Plus Premium.
