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. Assuming the 120HZ streaming is solid, an OLED would be the more welcome addition, especially with the latest generation of technology offering QD-OLED (Quantum Dot-OLED), WOLED (White-OLED) and other buzzy titles for smarter display.  Whatever ...

ScourgeBringer delivers for the Vita

Check out the review of this brutal gaming challenge here. 

Hopefully you know how much of a NeuroVoider fan I am. If not, I heartily recommend you download Flying Oak's first shooter right now. Even lacking multiplayer on the Vita, its a great little power-up driven shooter. It should help get you prepped for ScourgeBringer, a roguelite title we were told wasn't coming to the Vita, but is now bringing portable violence our way including a physical release via Eastasiasoft. 


Set in a post-apocalyptic world where a mysterious entity wreaked havoc on all humanity, ScourgeBringer puts players in the shoes of the deadliest warrior of her clan: Kyhra. Help her to explore the unknown and slash her way through ancient machines guarding the seal of her past, and maybe the redemption of humanity.

Pre-orders go live for the physical release soon, with launched planned for April 22nd, and the game should hit PSN, whatever state that is in at the time.  Updated with the YouTube video...
