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.

Bayonetta prequel brings lost demons to the Switch

Bucking the serious amount of sequelitis on show at The Game Awards, Platinum and Nintendo keep the Bayonetta party going with a fresh installment, in the form of prequel Bayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon. Announced at the gaming mega-event last night, there's a shiny trailer and lots of happy fans out there this morning. 

This story is presented in the same cel-shaded art style as the secret level in Bayonetta 3 after going through the old picture book. It lets us rewind the Umbra Witch's story to learn her origins. In this new adventure, we take control of the younger, Cereza and her first demon Cheshire to fend off faeries and solve puzzles.


Bayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon releases March 17, 2023 on Nintendo Switch, ideal for those longing for more lore and beast-beating. It is already up for pre-order on the eShop at £49.99, with the rest of the trilogy all available for those who want to get into Bayonetta's bewitching adventures. Slightly better value in physical form with a download for B1 in the Bayonetta 2 box.
