Sony Group Corp. is in the early stages of developing a portable console that would play its PlayStation 5 games on the move.

The product is aimed at expanding Sony’s reach and contending with Nintendo Co. for the portable gaming market, according to people familiar with its development. It would also counter any potential mobile hardware from Xbox maker Microsoft Corp., which is working on prototypes in the category as well. Sony’s portable device is likely years away from launch and the company could still decide against bringing it to market, the people said, asking not to be named discussing private plans.

I will not be surprised if this Vita 2 will be history repeated again since Switch 2 may also be its direct competitor along with Steamdeck and OG Switch. Hopefully Im wrong but I am still bummed on their approach on PS Vita.

So the rumours for portable handheld console which runs both ps4 and ps3 games is true ?

I have zero clue how they will handle disc games with this one. If they completely drop support I think it will alienate a lot of their potential customers. Maybe they will offer PS Store discounts for digital portable versions to users that have the game disc in their home system.
