AYANEO is preparing to debut the AYANEO Pocket Play, which will be powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 9300 processor. To recall, its initial launch date of January 13, 2026 was delayed as the company restructured operations and shifted focus toward customer support.

According to AYANEO, the Pocket Play will be sold through Kickstarter and the AYANEO Global Store, and its landing page is now live. While the company has not announced a final release date, the handheld is expected to arrive soon. In the Philippines, local buyers can also keep an eye on retailers such as Datablitz and GameXtreme, which regularly carry handheld gaming consoles, including AYANEO devices.
