Solana

Saga

<p class="is-style-lead">Solana ecosystem players have eyed mobile devices since the Saga phone, and a SOL-based team just announced its web3 gaming bet.</p> 
<p>Less than twenty-four hours before Solana (<a href="https://crypto.news/price/solana/" target="_blank">SOL</a>) Breakpoint in Singapore, a SOL-native team called Play Solana <a href="https://x.com/playsolana/status/1836739336060199340" target="_blank">announced</a> the first handheld gaming console built atop the layer-1 blockchain. The startup calls its gaming device the “Play Solana Gen1” or “PSG1.” Some social media users have noted that it looks like retro gaming machines, such as the popular Nintendo Game Boy.</p> 
<p>The gaming device will ship with support for SOL’s decentralized network, though the specific web3 games that users will be able to play have not yet been revealed. PlaySolana also mentioned that the device may differ from images displayed in promotional mock-ups, and the launch date remains undisclosed.</p>
