PlayStation 6 and PlayStation Portable future visions

 The recent PlayStation video about the "simulated" technology in development between AMD and Sony engineers that will power the PlayStation 6 was interesting from a geek point of view. 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.

New games announced for Vita at PSX

Good news, people! There's some more games headed to the Vita! Not exactly "new" new, but more titles nonetheless. Not only did Sony drop Bastion (£6, £3.60 for PS+), Bit.Trip Collection (£7.99) and Nuclear Throne (£9.49) on PSN today.

Double Fine adventure Full Throttle Remastered is also coming to the handheld, following up Day of the Tentacle, now dated for March. With tarted up artwork, the classic biker adventure was pretty cool in the day, although I'd still prefer to play The Dig again!



We're also getting mobile title Hitman Go (one of the best rated mobile games of the year). The Vita version will have gameplay updated and optimized, with NO in-app purchases but trophies added. And, if that proves a success, what chance Lara Croft Go?

Also coming our way is SNK classic fighter Last Blade 2, not sure if this is the Wii version or an all new update. So, that's a pretty reasonable return if you were expecting nothing at all.



This was all announced at Sony's PSX keynote, which was naturally PS4 and VR heavy. The show continues, and there should be a replay soon enough.
