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.   There's a PlayStation State of Play coming up on 12th February that might act as an announcement point.

Victor Vran: Overkill Edition storms the Switch with Motörhead

The Victor Vran: Overkill Edition features the original game plus an ethereal Fractured Worlds add-on, a challenging and empowering new chapter and Motörhead: Through the Ages – a wild tour through the mythos, music and attitude of what was the loudest and most honest band in the world.



“Victor Vran: Overkill Edition will be the first game of it’s kind to arrive on the Nintendo Switch,” says Leo Zullo, Managing Director at Wired Productions, “a masterpiece both technically and in its gameplay, Haemimont Games’ classic RPG will be a must-have addition for Switch owners.”

“Victor Vran has taken us on an incredible journey,” said Gabriel Dobrev, CEO at Haemimont Games. “from working with Motörhead to seeing so many players love the game as we have has been a real privilege – we’re excited for Victor’s next strides onto the Switch platform.”

Check out the trailer and get ready for action this summer. The games only real competition is Titan Quest, an even older PC game coming to consoles, but if these sell sufficiently expect plenty more action RPGs, and perhaps even the mighty Diablo series itself.
