The PlayStation Portal, officially the PlayStation Portal Remote Player,[4][5] is a handheld gaming accessory for the PlayStation 5 developed by Sony Interactive Entertainment. It was announced on May 23, 2023, and was released on November 15, 2023.[6]

Overview

[edit]

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".[7] It is used to stream from a PlayStation 5 via a Wi-Fi connection using Remote Play.[8][9]

In 2024, security researcher Andy "theflow0" Nguyen announced he was able to hack the PlayStation Portal and run PlayStation Portable games on it through the PPSSPP emulator, posting a picture of the Portal running the PSP release of Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories.[10][11]
