“Our data shows that PS Portal users are more connected than non-users. The PS portal has now become the most used device for Remote Play on PS5, surpassing PC, mobile, PS5 and PS4“.

The curious thing is also to see what they say on Push Square thanks to some surveys: Two years ago, 60% of the almost 6,000 respondents said they had not planned to buy the device and 33% had “zero interest” in it.
