Sony has announced a new feature that will be coming soon to the PS5, sparking speculation about its possible connection to a future portable console.
The feature aims to improve the console's energy efficiency. Although it is still in the beta phase, some key details are already known.

What does the new PS5 feature offer?
The update will allow the performance of certain games to be reduced so the console consumes less energy. This option will be available only for compatible titles.
When it is enabled, the PS5 will decrease its consumption during gameplay, but without affecting the operation in games that do not support the feature. If it is not enabled, the console will continue to perform as usual.
PlayStation VR2 will not be compatible with this option
An important limitation is that, when this new tool is enabled, PlayStation VR2 virtual reality games can't be used. This is a key warning for those who use this technology.

Is it related to a new portable?
The announcement caused a stir because it coincides with rumors about a Sony portable capable of running PS5 games natively. It would not be like the PS5 Portal, which works only via streaming.
There is no official confirmation for now, but the gaming community has already started connecting the dots. This energy-saving feature could make sense if it was also designed for smaller, portable hardware.

When will this feature arrive on PS5?
For now, the option is not available in the system's beta version. Sony indicated that it will be officially released later, as part of a system update.
