A reliable source has spilled the beans about Sony’s upcoming plans to introduce a new color for the PS Portal, which is set to make its debut soon in black. The insider from Dealabs, known as billbil-kun, has a solid track record of revealing Sony’s strategies before they hit the public eye. This time around, they’re asserting that the PS Portal will finally be available in a sleek black color option.
### When will the PS Portal be available in black?
While billbil-kun is usually spot on with timing details, the exact launch date for the black PS Portal remains a mystery. What we do know, according to the insider, is that it will come with a price tag identical to the original white version. Initially launched last year to complement the PS5’s standard color, the only other variation we’ve seen was the ultra-exclusive PlayStation 30th anniversary edition in grey.
So, this new release marks the first time we’ll see the PS Portal in a different color. The reason behind Sony rolling it out in limited quantities isn’t clear just yet. However, the report hints at a restock strategy driven by demand, suggesting Sony might be playing it safe, avoiding the risk of having too many units on the shelves.
In terms of global availability, the black variant is set to hit the shelves worldwide. Plus, Sony is reportedly cooking up more “hardware and accessories.” Unfortunately, billbil-kun has kept the specifics under wraps for now.
