Sony has once again expanded the number of games available to stream on its PS Portal handheld, including support for over 50 PS1 and PSP titles. That means PS Plus Premium members can stream these titles directly to the peripheral, without necessarily needing a PS5.

Among the games available are legitimate PlayStation classics like Wild Arms, Everybody’s Golf, and Twisted Metal. All of these titles are using Sony’s emulator, so you can enjoy contemporary features like save states, rewind, and, in many cases, Trophies.

This latest content drop doesn’t include every PS1 and PSP game in the PS Plus Premium catalogue, as some third-party titles like Disney Pixar’s Up and Worms Armageddon are absent. But it spans a good chunk of them.

Obviously, there are better ways to play classic retro games on a handheld, but the Japanese giant has been making more and more games available to stream on the PS Portal, adding even more functionality to the extremely popular peripheral. We imagine it’ll eventually extend support for emulated PS2 games, too.

How do you feel about this PS Portal feature? Is it something you’ve personally been taking advantage of? How else do you think Sony can improve upon its Remote Play handheld? Let us know in the comments section below.
