"The platform will include hardware and software, Intel vice president and general manager of PC products, Daniel Rogers, announced at CES on Monday. It will be built off of the company's Intel Core Series 3 processors, known as Panther Lake, which was announced last year and is now being rolled out in a variety of PCs. This future platform includes a chip specifically for handheld gaming devices, according to reporting from IGN, which was confirmed by TechCrunch."
"These Panther Lake chips are the company's first built on its 18A manufacturing process which started production in 2025. Intel is no stranger to the gaming industry and has been building chips for gaming PCs since the 90s. The company leaned more heavily into gaming in 2022 with the release of its Intel Arc GPUs. Entering the handheld gaming space would be an interesting development, though, as the market is currently dominated by AMD."
Intel is developing a new hardware-and-software platform for portable gaming devices built on Intel Core Series 3 processors, Panther Lake. The platform will include a chip specifically designed for handheld gaming. Panther Lake chips are Intel's first produced on the 18A manufacturing process, which entered production in 2025. Intel expanded into gaming hardware with Intel Arc GPUs in 2022 and has produced gaming PC chips since the 1990s. The handheld gaming market is currently dominated by AMD. AMD announced a new Ryzen 7 9850X3D processor and new ray tracing and graphics technologies at CES. Intel plans to share more product details later this year.
