Sony manager tells TechRadar PS Portal most widely used PS5 Remote Play device

Takuro Fushimi, Senior Manager of Product Management at Sony (SONY) Interactive Entertainment, told TechRadar’s Demi Williams last week that the PlayStation Portal is currently the most popular PlayStation device to use for Remote Play. Fushimi said the handheld, which is essentially a PlayStation 5 controller with a screen that allows for remote gaming with a nearby PS5, has exceeded the company’s expectations in terms of engagement and is now used for Remote Play more than even the PS5 is for the same feature, the author says. “Before we launched the Portal, some questioned whether there would be demand for it, as it is such a unique product being a dedicated Remote Play device to start off with,” Fushimi said. “However, we’ve seen the community’s response has been overwhelming.”
