The PlayStation Portal handheld system may be about to get a highly-requested feature soon, judging from a PS App leak.
Over on the PlayStation Portal official subreddit, user GetTheWetsOn shared a screenshot captured from the PS App of the Deliver at All Costs store page, which seemingly confirms that cloud streaming of purchased digital games could be coming to the PlayStation Portal for PS Plus Premium subscribers. The user also stated that the same confirmation, which has since been removed, could be found on the Dead Space remake store page.
While there's no indication this new PlayStation Portal streaming option is indeed coming, its confirmation on the store pages of two different games is unlikely to be a mistake, so there's a high chance it will eventually arrive on the system.
Ever since the system's release and its surprising popularity, Sony has repeatedly iterated that the company is looking into expanding the system's functionality. Allowing streaming of owned digital PlayStation games without having to download them first on their home system would be the perfect way to do so.
The PlayStation Portal is a Remote Play focused handheld device which launched back in 2023 worldwide. While not the successor of the PlayStation Vita many have been expecting for a long time, the system does what it does exceptionally well. You can learn more about it by checking out Kai's review.
