Project Q is the upcoming streaming only device that will allow you to play games installed on a PlayStation 5 remotely.
It has not been announced if the handheld will allow streaming of games from the cloud and is rumoured to cost between £250 - £300.

Will you be picking one up later this year?

Even phones can do easily with Steam and then just get a controller and a controller mount. For the price that is being asked of project q and not even being able to play games natively the phone and controller route is way I'd go instead dropping money on that. Way too much with the options available now with handhelds that are full blown computers.

Oh, I agree. I do this with a phone, clip, and Xbox controller already. I just think hearing it could have other uses outside of just the PS5 would be good for sales -- but I'm thinking that won't be a feature and it'll require some ingenuity to make it work for other host devices.

Given that the Deck can run games like Last of Us and Spider-Man I wonder why at the price Sony is asking they aren't just going into a fully portable PS5 handheld. Switch and Deck has shown handhelds are one area where people are way more forgiving of low resolution and performance. If Sony priced the device like $100 more and with how parts in pc handhelds now are better than what the deck came with they could put out something nice.
