Well-placed, anonymous source alleges Sony may be preparing to bundle its struggling handheld with its upcoming home console.
Sony may be readying a hardware bundle that includes a PlayStation Vita handheld with its upcoming PS4, according to a report by Machinima (via VideoGamer.com).
According to “a well-placed, anonymous source”, the package will reportedly go on sale before the end of 2013, and will retail for around $500. No additional details were made available. With the Vita currently retailing for $250 as a standalone device, and the standard edition of the PlayStation 4 priced at $399, a $500 pack would represent a significant saving for consumers.
Sony previously announced that all PlayStation 4 games will be playable on the company’s handheld via Remote Play, though only games that have been “specifically programmed to allow such use of PS Vita” will be able to use the handheld as a controller for the home console.
GameSpot contacted Sony Computer Entertainment seeking confirmation of the rumour, but a spokesperson was unavailable at the time of publication.
