PlayStation Portal handheld launches in Singapore on September 4

The PlayStation Portal handheld launches in Singapore on September 4 at S$295.90, with pre-orders starting on August 5.

The much-anticipated Portal handheld is finally arriving in Singapore on September 4. According to a recent press release from Sony, this exciting new device will be priced at S$295.90.

Pre-order details

Starting August 5, you can pre-order the PlayStation Portal from local retailers, including the Sony Stores. The complete list of participating retailers is available on Sony’s website. With a suggested retail price of S$295.90, this handheld device promises to bring PlayStation fans a new level of gaming experience.

Designed for streaming

The PlayStation Portal, formerly Project Q, is specifically designed to stream PlayStation 5 (PS5) games over Wi-Fi. It features an impressive eight-inch LCD screen, delivering a 1080p resolution at 60 frames per second. However, it’s important to note that you cannot install or run games directly on the PlayStation Portal; a PS5 must be switched on for gameplay.

Innovative controller design

One of the standout features of the PlayStation Portal is its built-in controllers on each side of the device. These controllers bear a striking resemblance to Sony’s flagship PS5 DualSense controllers. They support adaptive triggers and haptic feedback, providing a tactile gaming experience that closely mirrors the feel of the PS5’s dedicated DualSense controller. This ensures a seamless and immersive gaming experience, whether you’re at home or on the go.

With its sleek and advanced features, the PlayStation Portal is set to be a hit among gaming enthusiasts in Singapore. Mark your calendar for August 5 to secure your pre-order and be one of the first to experience this innovative handheld device.
