Play Solana has announced that its handheld Web3 gaming device, the PSG1, will begin shipping on October 10, 2025. Billed as the first gaming console fully powered by the Solana blockchain, the PSG1 promises to merge traditional handheld gameplay with digital ownership, rewards, and access to blockchain-based titles.
With the PSG1, players will not just enjoy immersive games, but also earn tokens, trade in-game assets, and connect to a wider ecosystem of decentralized applications.
Why a Web3 Gaming Device Matters
For years, gaming companies have experimented with digital economies. Popular titles like Fortnite and Roblox already allow players to buy and trade virtual items. The difference with Web3 devices is that these items can be owned outright by players as blockchain assets. That means a rare skin, weapon, or character is not just stored in a game but secured on a blockchain and can be sold, traded, or moved between platforms.
Play Solana’s PSG1 aims to make this experience accessible. Instead of navigating complex wallets or exchanges, the console will integrate these tools directly into the gaming experience. This trend has been growing steadily. According to DappRadar, blockchain gaming attracted over 1.1 million daily active users in mid-2024, showing that players are ready to explore ownership-driven experiences.
The wait is over.

A real-world example can be seen in the game Axie Infinity. At its peak in 2021, players in the Philippines earned a steady income by trading in-game creatures as NFTs. While the hype cooled, it proved that gaming tied to blockchain could support entire communities. The PSG1 hopes to take that concept mainstream with hardware designed for speed, security, and ease of use.
The wait is over, we will be selecting more games to be pre-installed on the PSG1.

A Sign of a Bigger Trend
The PSG1 is launching into a moment when traditional gaming companies are warming up to blockchain. Ubisoft has experimented with NFT items, and Square Enix has announced blockchain partnerships. Investors are also watching closely. Research from Fortune Business Insights predicts that the blockchain gaming market could reach $600 billion by 2030, driven by demand for digital ownership.
