Currently only known as Project Q, the handheld will be exclusively used for PS Remote Play.
E3 may dead, but that doesn’t mean that summer game announcements have joined it. During Sony’s PlayStation Showcase livestream earlier today, the company confirmed rumors that it was working on a new handheld, but instead of being a follow-up to 2011’s PlayStation Vita, the device will be more in line with devices like the Logitech G Cloud and Razer Edge, which focus on game streaming.
Jim Ryan, the CEO and President of Sony Interactive Entertainment, revealed our first look at the device today, which still doesn’t have an official name yet, but is known internally at Sony as Project Q. Details on the handheld’s capabilities, specs, and performance aren’t known, but Ryan confirmed it will feature a huge, eight-inch HD screen that sits between what appears to be a bifurcated PlayStation 5 controller.
