Sony hints next-gen PlayStation will expand gameplay beyond the living room

Sony has signaled that its next-generation PlayStation console will offer gaming experiences outside the traditional living room setting. The hint came during a recent Q&A session with investors, where the company addressed how it plans to win back users who shifted to PC gaming during the COVID-19 pandemic. Sony acknowledged that PlayStation has historically been tied to living room play but suggested significant changes are coming with the next platform. The comments have fueled speculation about a potential new handheld device, which Sony is already rumored to be developing. No further details about the next-gen platform or a portable device have been officially confirmed.
