But from a gameplay perspective, there is - IMO - no need for a PlayStation 6 for another few years. Especially with the limp Xbox is-it-isn't-it launch .  April 2026 Update:  Compatibility with PS5 and PS4 games seems to be locked-in, as anything the PS6 full fat hardware the portable versions should be able to do as well, with near-invisible trade-offs at the silicon level.  Prices are firming up too with estimates around the PlayStation 6 handheld at between $500 to $700 and a PlayStation 6 at $700 to $1,000, depending on the deepening silicon crisis and Sony's budgeting wizards.  Only a few developers around the world could afford to take advantage of it for AAA+ budget games.

Sony's Gamescom Vita titles unveiled

German site PlayFront seems to have got its hands on an invite to Sony's press event at Gamescom next month, and it mentions several Vita titles in the list, plus two new unannounced games.

- Call of Duty: Declassified (PS Vita)
- Soul Sacrifice (PS Vita)
- Dust 514 app (PS Vita)
- LittleBigPlanet (PS Vita)
- PlayStation AllStars: Battle Royale (PS3 + PS Vita)
- Assassin's Creed 3 (PS3 and PS Vita)
- The Unfinished Swan (PS3)
- The Last of Us (PS3)
- Wonder Book: A Book of Spells (PS3)

With Capcom also promising big things at the event, could the middle of August be the time when the Vita really gets going? Of course, PlayFront could just be making an educated guess, there's no photo of the invite, but I'd buy into this. Killzone has been shown off, but not seen beyond the Vita's launch so could be one title. The other is anyone's guess.
