PlayStation 6 and PlayStation Portable future visions

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.

Xenoraid swarming the Vita in early January

Finnish developers 10tons continue to bring the games with  Xenoraid hitting the Vita, hot on the heels of the awesome Neon Chrome. The latest shooter from the team arrives on January 10th for America and 11th for Europe for $9.99 (likely £7.99) but will be free as Cross Buy if you already own the PS4 version

Xenoraid’s gameplay is accessible to all with procedural missions, real time fighter switching to keep things fresh and an additional Hard Mode and three survival levels with online leaderboards for replayability. It looks like the Vita version is single player only, but still should be bags of fun.

UPDATE: The game should be pretty identical to other versions, the developers state "Technically speaking there are less dust layers in the background on the Vita version, and I believe we switched the inactive area blur effect when navigating menus to a much lighter fade effect."

 Features:
  • Experience dynamic shoot'em up action with no level memorization 
  • Switch between four fighters in the heat of combat 
  • Manage your squadron with weapon and tech upgrades 
  • Master advanced shooting mechanics like fighter tilting and weapon heat 
  • Fight through a Campaign mode with more than 40 missions and four boss fights 
  • Compete in three endless Survival stages with online leaderboards
