Sony’s PlayStation Portal: Not a Nintendo Switch Rival, But a Unique Experience

Sony Clarifies PlayStation Portal's Role Amidst Mixed Reception

Additionally, Lempel confirmed that the PlayStation Portal won’t support game streaming directly from Sony’s cloud gaming service. He explained that the handheld is designed for gamers who want the flexibility to play in different rooms, on the sofa while others use the TV, or even outside of their homes. A strong internet connection is recommended to make the most of its portability and game streaming capabilities.

In the same conversation, Eric Lempel also discussed the PS5 Access Controller, Sony’s first customizable controller for disabled gamers. He made it clear that this controller is specifically designed to work with Sony’s hardware and offers diverse customization options to accommodate the needs of disabled gamers without requiring extensive adjustments.
