Amid a plethora of game trailers, Sony dedicated a single minute of its more-than-an-hour-long PlayStation Showcase livestream on Wednesday to reveal two new hardware products.

The most buzzworthy of these is surely Project Q—that’s the internal name, as the final name is still pending. Whatever it is called in the future, Project Q confirms a long-standing rumor: It’s a new PlayStation handheld.

The device will be focused on streaming; Sony says it will allow users to stream any non-VR game from a local PlayStation 5 console using Remote Play over Wi-Fi. In fact, it won’t be able to play games on its own; it’s all about the streaming functionality.
