In May 2023, Sony confirmed that it was indeed working on a Project Q handheld game console, scheduled for release in November. A recent leak confirms that the PlayStation Project Q will run on the Android operating system (OS) and also gives us an idea of what the Sony console will look like in the real world.
According to Zuby_Tech’s Twitter post, the Sony Project Q handheld console will run on a forked version of the Android OS with a simple and intuitive user interface. The leak also reveals that the Project Q will likely look like a stretched version of the DualSense controller with a display in the middle.
According to Indianexpress, the leak also shows that the Project Q will likely look like a stretched version of the DualSense controller with a display in the middle. According to a leaked hands-on idea of what looks like an early version of the upcoming PlayStation handheld, the device will likely feature built-in microphones, speakers, and a full array of DualSense controller-like triggers and buttons.
Unlike the Nintendo Switch, the world’s most popular handheld game console, and even the recently released Asus ROG Ally, the PlayStation Project Q won’t be a standalone game console. Instead, it will most likely be a cloud gaming device where PS5 users should be able to stream their games to a handheld console. However, the detailed specifications of the Sony Project Q have not yet been disclosed. Sony Project Q is expected to release in November 2023.
