Sackboy: A Big Adventure will not be the only game from PlayStation to hit the platform. Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection will launch on October 19 for PC as well. Sony has teased a fall release window for the PC version of Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales but hasn’t revealed a definitive release date just yet. Considering the game has a strong holiday and Christmas theme, sometime before the end of the year seems like the perfect timing.

There have also been many leaks and hints about Housemarque’s PlayStation 5 game Returnal coming to PC. The game has been spotted in Steam’s database and leaked footage of the settings menu in the PC version was uploaded to YouTube. According to the leaked footage, Returnal on PC would support ray-traced shadows, reflections, DLSS, and FSR. However, neither Sony nor Housemarque has made a formal announcement about the game coming to PC.

Sackboy: A Big Adventure was first released on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 in November 2020. The game follows Sackboy as a mythical villain named Vex kidnaps his friends and forces them to build a machine capable of turning Craftsworld into a hellscape.

Everything announced at the September 2023 State of Play
Venom in Marvel's Spider-Man 2.

September's State of Play presentation finally happened, and it gave us a clear look at what is coming to PlayStation 5 and PlayStation VR2 between now and early 2024. While the show was mainly third-party -focused, with games like Resident Evil 4, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, Foamstars, and Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, we also got new looks at Sony-published games like Marvel's Spider-Man 2 and Helldivers 2.

It wasn't quite as good as last September's State of Play, which was a spectacle that featured games like Tekken 8 and Like a Dragon: Ishin! That said, it had plenty of announcements that PlayStation fans should be keeping on their radar. If you missed out on watching this State of Play live, we've recapped every announcement from the September 2023 State of Play right here.

After being teased under the code name Project Q, we now have a clear picture of just what Sony's latest hardware will be. Officially called the PlayStation Portal, this curious device has many gamers a bit confused about what it is, what it can do, and who it is for. Is it a new handheld, a streaming device, or something in-between? With all the information finally available, we are here to clear up any confusion about what this latest piece of PlayStation hardware really is.
Price
The PlayStation Portal will retail for $200 at launch.
Release date
You can expect the PlayStation Portal to arrive later this year, on November 15, 2023.
Specs

The most important thing to know about the PlayStation Portal is what it really is. This is not a dedicated handheld like the PSP or Vita that you can play games on natively, but instead can only be used as a companion to your PlayStation 5. This device is only intended to stream games from your main console to the screen via Wi-Fi for remote play. Games cannot be played locally on the device, meaning it cannot function without connecting to your PS5. However, you do not need to be on the same network as your PS5. As long as your PS5 is in rest mode and connected to Wi-Fi, you can connect to it through another Wi-Fi network to play, provided the connection is strong enough.

All cross-platform games (PS5, Xbox Series X, PS4, Xbox One, Switch, PC)

Cross-platform support is becoming more important in the world of video games. Multiplayer hits like Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0 and Fortnite have pushed crossplay into the limelight, and now most AAA multiplayer games release with at least partial cross-platform support. Finding every cross-platform game is no easy feat, though, so we did the hard work to bring you a comprehensive list of games that support crossplay.

Unfortunately, there aren't any rules when it comes to crossplay, so each game handles the feature a little differently. To make matters more confusing, certain backward-compatible games on the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X still support crossplay on the most recent hardware, even if there isn't an official release for that hardware.
