The laptop market has grown substantially in recent years. Consoles like the Switch and Steam Deck have shown that this market still has a lot to offer us. Thus, A new rumor has indicated that Sony is already working on a new PlayStation Portable, or PSP.
Anton Logvinov, Russian journalist and one of the first to ensure that PlayStation games would be available on PC, has indicated that a new PSP is already in development. However, The catalog of games that will be available only includes PlayStation experiences 4, with titles that we already find on Steam, as well as on the Steam Deck. This is what he said about it:
“By the way, I can confirm that Sony is preparing a new PSP for launch, but God, there are only PS4 games in the launch lineup, which are usually available on PC and therefore on the Steam Deck. Chain stores, by the way, are quite skeptical.”
For now, Sony has remained silent on the matter. However, this shouldn’t come as a big surprise. Thanks to the rise of portable PCs, as well as the Switch, in recent years, Rumors have indicated that both Sony and Microsoft are working on new consoles for this market.
However, if Logvinov’s information is correct, It seems that Sony’s proposal does not look as attractive as many expected. This report exposes a problem that not many have considered, and that is that a PlayStation and Xbox laptop is not that necessary. Considering that Game Pass and multiple Sony first-party games are already available on PC, there’s not much incentive to purchase something like a new PSP, since a Steam Deck or ROG Ally already offers these types of experiences.
Considering that at the moment there is no official information, We can only wait for Sony to confirm or deny the existence of a new PSP. On related topics, the gold PSP now has a new owner. Likewise, they hacked a PlayStation Portal to run PSP games.
Author’s Note:
There’s really no big incentive to own a PSP, beyond playing titles that may not come to PC for a while, but will eventually be available on this platform. A Steam Deck and ROG Ally are more than enough.
