A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about PlayStation Portal Midnight Black - PlayStation 5. That is a great question about using the PlayStation Portal in a shared household! The simple answer is No, not with the Portal's primary function (Remote Play). However, there is a specific method that makes it possible, but it requires an extra subscription. Here is a breakdown of the two scenarios: 1. ❌ Remote Play (Default Portal Function) Result: You cannot play two different games simultaneously. Reason: The PlayStation Portal is a dedicated Remote Play device. It essentially acts as a remote screen and controller that streams the video feed directly from your physical PS5 console. The PS5 is doing the work: If you are using the Portal to play a game, the PS5 console itself is actively running that game. The TV screen may be off, but the console is engaged. If a second person tries to start a different game on the PS5, it will kick the Portal user out, or vice-versa. 2. ✅ Cloud Streaming (The Workaround) Result: You CAN play two different games simultaneously. Requirements: PlayStation Plus Premium subscription for the account being used on the Portal. Two different PlayStation Network accounts (one for the PS5, one for the Portal). Reason: With a PS Plus Premium subscription, the Portal can stream compatible games directly from Sony's cloud servers, completely bypassing the need to run the game on your home PS5 console. The PS5 is then free to run a different game locally for the second person. If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.

A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about PlayStation Portal Midnight Black - PlayStation 5 Yes, the PlayStation Portal is designed primarily to stream games from your own PS5 console over Wi-Fi, but a recent update allows it to stream some games from the PlayStation Plus Premium cloud library without needing a PS5 turned on, though this requires the highest subscription tier and access can vary by region. So, you can use it without a PS5 for cloud streaming, but for playing your PS5 games remotely, the console is essential.

A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about PlayStation Portal Midnight Black - PlayStation 5 Yes, a PlayStation Portal can use a phone hotspot, but it requires a strong and stable connection for the best experience. The Portal streams from your PS5, so the hotspot must provide a strong enough Wi-Fi signal to the Portal, and the PS5 must be connected to the internet (often through a separate broadband connection or a second, more stable hotspot).

A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about PlayStation Portal Midnight Black - PlayStation 5 No, the PlayStation Portal will not work without an internet connection to play offline games because it is a streaming-only device that relies on a Wi-Fi connection to your PS5. It uses the PS Remote Play feature, which requires a stable broadband internet connection for both your PS5 and the Portal to function, even for single-player games.
