Possible new PlayStation Portal model pays homage to the Vita's OLED

While much of the focus on PlayStation's next steps is the PS6 and PS6 Portable , the two-year old PlayStation Portal could be getting a revamp according to those pesky internet rumours.  Update : Hints at pricing are around £/$250-299 for the new model, but everything remains deeply in rumours territory. Presumably the goal is to hit the 10% (currently 7%-ish) adoption rate among PS5 owners, something that would make it a bone fide hit gadget.   The recent February  PlayStation State of Play  saw no announcement. But, PlayStation needs to make Portal more a core member of the PS5 family, rather than the distant cousin that most of its appearances suggest.  As the improvement in connectivity and streaming tech, proven by many gamers enjoying their PS5 or PlayStation Plus streamed content from around the world, an updated Portal Pro could be on the cards.  Possibly featuring a 120Hz display and an OLED screen in honour of the mighty Vita, that'd be coo...

Looks like Vita owners not getting LEGO Batman 3 DLC

File under "eventually, this was inevitable", but it looks like the minor versions of LEGO Batman 3 including the Vita and 3DS editions won't get access to the Season Pass or the cool DLC coming for these games. Amazon has the Vita version as £5 less than the main versions, which is little consolation.




The DLC will be available individually, but there's no sign of that being available to portable owners, although the 11/14 EU release date is still some way off. Warner Bros is adding the Season Pass to flog extra content after first sale, which is fair enough, from a money-grabbing perspective. But, it could at least offer it across all the games.

Only the major consoles and PC are getting the pass. The DLC will add an extra 40 new playable characters, vehicles, missions and achievements to the roster including Bane, classic Batman and more. Why they couldn't be in the core game (which I think has some 150 odd folk anyway) will be a business decision as Warner tries to milk these games for all they are worth.

The first three packs; Dark Knight, Batman 75th Anniversary and Man of Steel Pack, cost £2.55 while a season pass gets you all six for £12.79, a saving of £2.50.
