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.

The spooky adventures of Yomawari head to Switch

Fine, gentle-paced but decidedly chilling Vita adventures the Yomawari series, from NIS America. Both games Night Alone and Midnight Shadows are heading to the Switch this October as one release. A year after the Vita release of Midnight Shadows, Switch owners can enjoy saving the young girls from the creatures in the shadows.

Both games are packed with atmosphere, the thrill of exploration after hours and the panic as the monsters emerge. The second game features:

  • A Complete Town to Explore - Enter abandoned homes, climb through junk yards and up mountains, or venture into dark sewers in your search.
  • Two Views of the Dark - Search the night and explore a town as either of Yomawari: Midnight Shadow’s two characters. What you find with one may serve as a clue, or even save the other.
  • Horrors, Oddities, and Mysteries - When Japanese spirits come to life, you’ll encounter horrors birthed in nightmares, oddities that will make you question what is real, and mysteries that may just keep you up at night.
  • Gorgeous Style - Enter the dark with haunting art to view the city and from above, and get close to the heart-pounding moments in beautifully imagined side-scrolling set pieces.
Check out a limited edition physical version on the NISA site.
