The PlayStation Portal is a remote video game player that lets you stream your favorite games straight from your PlayStation 5 using Remote Play. It’s one of the hottest gaming devices in Sony’s lineup right now — it’s been perpetually in and out of stock ever since its debut in May 2023. While it’s still unavailable at most retailers, right now it’s in stock at Walmart and StockX.

You’ll pay $226 for the Portal at StockX and $265 for the Portal at Walmart. The PlayStation Portal normally retails for $200, so these prices represent a third-party reseller markup. Still, the $26 StockX markup is one of the lowest we’ve seen in quite some time — and a good deal if you absolutely need to have this gaming handheld now.

PlayStation Portal: $265 at Walmart

The PlayStation Portal is a small-scale 8-inch tablet-like display surrounded by a PlayStation DualSense controller. It delivers 60fps with 1080p resolution for your favorite games and connects via button press to your console.

You can play compatible games on your PS5 as well as some PS4 titles with the Portal. Some games will not work with the player, but the majority will – and that alone makes it worth grabbing. Plus, you get the same quality of controller as you would by simply playing at a console. The DualSense halves surrounding the screen come with the same haptic feedback and adaptive triggers for a more immersive experience.

This streaming device is similar in form factor to the Steam Deck or the Asus ROG Ally, but it’s locked to PlayStation games and requires a Wi-Fi connection. That makes it perfect for seamless streaming play and enables you to take your PlayStation 5 play sessions and enjoy them in another room, outside the house, or in bed where it’s much more comfortable. It’s worth grabbing, even if it’s not at the ideal price.
