A black PS Portal is rumoured to be part of a PS5 accessories refresh that Sony has planned for the near future. A new report from Dealabs insider Billbil-Kun suggests the current PS Portal model will soon be available in a black colourway, and will retail at the same price as the design already on the market now. They claim this will be a limited launch, so you may face an upwards battle trying to pre-order one.
Elsewhere in the report, Billbil-Kun states «other hardware and accessories seem to be in the works at Sony», and they'll be released «very soon». They say they don't have enough «verified information» for a full report yet, however.
This follows on from yesterday's claim of a Helldivers 2-themed PS5 controller also set to be part of the accessories update. The insider has also said that lots of PlayStation-related things are «being prepared behind the scenes» — as if they aren't at pretty much all times. Some fans have taken this to mean the possibility of a new PlayStation Showcase or State of Play, but Jeff Grubb of Giant Bomb has suggested that's not happening.
What do you make of these claims? Is a PS5 accessories refresh imminent, or is there more to the story? Let us know in the comments below.

Exciting stuff....
Terrific! Will certainly add it to the collection if true!
I’ve had pretty much zero interest in the Portal mainly because I’m not sure if my WiFi is up to the task, but a black one? What with last week’s IGN Game Scoop podcast stating that a recent firmware
