While the Pro version of the PlayStation 5 may be the console on everyone's minds,industry insiders are already looking further afield to the potential return of a Sony handheld. Before the (underrated) PlayStation Vita failed, Sony managed to carve out a decent niche in the handheld market with the PlayStation Portable. Fans of the surprisingly powerful device have long requested that PlayStation return to making smaller devices for on-the-go play, so if the latest leaks surrounding the next-gen console are to be believed, Vita fans are in for a good time.
Per Insider Gaming, reputable leaker KeplerL2, who has a track record of correctly predicting console hardware, reports that Sony currently has two system-on-a-chips (SoCs) in development for the PlayStation 6. KeplerL2 elaborates that they're unsure if the plan is to emulate Microsoft's Xbox Series X|S strategy by releasing a standard and less powerful version of the same console or whether it's more elaborate. The other major possibility is that Sony could release a home console and a handheld version given how the market has exploded in recent years thanks to hardware like the Nintendo Switch and Steam Deck.
