The PlayStation Portal is Sony's innovative handheld gaming accessory designed for the PS5 console. It resembles an extended DualSense controller with an 8-inch 1080p LCD screen integrated into the center. This device allows you to stream games from your PS5 at up to 60fps, complete with all the DualSense features like haptic feedback, adaptive triggers, and a touchscreen interface in place of the traditional touchpad. For those looking to play outside their home, a very stable and fast internet connection is essential. Remember, the PS Portal is not a standalone device; it requires a PS5 to function.
Update: You no longer need a PS5 to enjoy gaming on the PS Portal. Sony has introduced a new feature allowing direct streaming from the PlayStation Now cloud service, expanding access to over 120 games, including titles like Ghost of Tsushima, Resident Evil 3 Remake, The Last of Us Part 1 Remastered, and Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales. To utilize this feature, you'll need a subscription to the highest tier of PlayStation Plus, which costs $18 monthly—a more budget-friendly option than purchasing a PS5 and additional games.
While the PlayStation Portal offers a seamless way to stream your PS5 games over Wi-Fi, you can achieve similar functionality by using the PS Remote Play app on other devices like smartphones or the Steam Deck. However, setting this up can be more complex, and you might miss out on some of the DualSense's unique features.
PlayStation Portal Review by Seth Macy
"The PlayStation Portal is a device that exceeded my expectations. It's far superior to using a phone with an attached controller and offers a fantastic way to play your PS5 games from anywhere with decent Wi-Fi. The only downsides are its inability to connect to Wi-Fi networks that require a web browser login and the lack of Bluetooth audio support. Despite these limitations, it remains the best solution for PlayStation Remote Play, making it a must-have for PS5 owners who enjoy handheld gaming or need to share their TV."
