Although its pro version Playstation 5 May be the console of all minds, Industry insiders are already looking further afield at the potential return of a Sony handheld. Before the (underrated) PlayStation Vita failed, Sony managed to carve out a decent niche in the handheld market with the PlayStation Portable. Fans of the surprisingly powerful device have long requested that PlayStation return to making smaller devices on the go, so if recent leaks surrounding the next-gen console are to be believed, Vita fans are in for a good time.
Per Insider Gaming, reputable leaker KeplerL2, which has a track record of accurately predicting console hardware, reports that Sony is currently developing two system-on-a-chips (SoCs) for the PlayStation 6. The plan is to emulate Microsoft’s Xbox Series X|S strategy by releasing a standard and less powerful version of the same console, or whether it’s wider. The other main possibility is that With how the market has exploded in recent years, Sony could release a home console and a handheld version. Thanks to hardware like the Nintendo Switch and Steam Deck.
