Linneman believes that a PlayStation handheld is in development, and that future of consoles could offer a portable device and a traditional home system. It’s fair to say the phenomenal success of the Nintendo Switch has caught the attention of Sony and Microsoft, and it’s also led to a surge of portable handheld PCs, like the Asus ROG Ally X and Valve’s Steam Deck OLED.
