Sony Interactive Entertainment CEO Hideaki Nishino has indicated that future PlayStation hardware will leverage technologies usable in various forms and locations, pointing to a portable model for the PS6. The remarks reinforce Sony's ongoing commitment to dedicated consoles while addressing changing player lifestyles.
He replied that his belief a console is necessary for playing games has not changed and that Sony wants to continue providing its own game consoles.
Nishino noted that although the PlayStation brand is strongly associated with playing on the TV in the living room, the company is planning to release monitors and speakers so that people can play comfortably in other locations as well.
