It sounds like Sony is taking cues from the Nintendo Wii U playbook.
Sony hasn’t launched a new PlayStation handheld since 2011’s PlayStation Vita, but there are still plenty of options such as the Steam Deck, Nintendo Switch, and a variety of Android-based devices. Now, it sounds like Sony might be getting ready for a return of sorts to the segment.
Tom Henderson of Insider Gaming reports that Sony is working on a new PlayStation handheld, code-named the Q Lite. But you might want to temper your expectations if you were hoping for a PlayStation Vita 2 or PSP 3 as it sounds like we could be getting something akin to a Wii U gamepad instead.
Henderson asserts that the new handheld is designed for Remote Play with the PlayStation 5 and will require a persistent internet connection. The console is said to support adaptive streaming at up to 1080p/60fps quality. It all strongly suggests that this handheld won’t natively run any games.
