Sony’s new PlayStation Portal update lets you stream PS5 games from the cloud

Now, the PlayStation Portal handheld can stream more than 120 PS5 games from the cloud — if you pay for PlayStation Plus Premium.

Sony is bringing a big new feature to the PlayStation Portal: cloud streaming. When it first launched, the device was only able to stream games from your PS5 over Wi-Fi. But as part of a new system update that’s rolling out starting later today, you’ll be able to stream select PS5 games from the PlayStation Plus Game Catalog to your PlayStation Portal. Sony is launching the feature in beta, and you’ll need to be a PlayStation Plus Premium subscriber to take advantage of it.

Some PlayStation Plus features won’t be available to start with cloud streaming to the PlayStation Portal, including Game Trials, party voice chat, game invites for select games, 3D audio, and “in-game commerce.” And you won’t be able to stream any PS4 games or PS3 games. Child accounts also won’t be able to use cloud streaming on the Portal.
