Earlier, PlayStation co-CEO Hideaki Nishino had discussed the PlayStation 6 in comparison with the PS5 Pro as he said that there was still room to improve ‘other elements’ beyond graphics.
The development came amid reports that Sony has already signed an agreement with AMD to create the console’s technology.
Reports had said that Sony was looking into the handheld consoles market following the success of the PlayStation Portal.
It is worth mentioning here that since 2011’s PS Vita, Sony has not released a dedicated handheld.
Meanwhile, talks have been going around that Xbox was working to dive into the handheld market as part of its next-generation plans following the success of the Nintendo Switch and Steam Deck.
Rumours suggest that Sony might release the PS6 arrive as early as 2026, the same year Microsoft is planning to launch the next Xbox.
