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 to hit the 10% (currently 7%-ish) adoption rate among PS5 owners that would make it a bone fide hit gadget.   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 cool.

There's a Risk of Rain on the Vita

Hopoo's Risk of Rain has finally arrived on the PS Vita, many years after its PC launch, bringing multiplayer rogue-liking to the handheld.

Should hopefully have a review up soon. There's a longer explanation of the game in an earlier piece and you can listen to the well-respected soundtrack here

Update, here's a look at the game in action on the Vita, from YouTuber ItsBradazHD, in case you were worrying about those tiny graphics.
