The Playdate is a handheld game console developed by Creator/{{Panic}} and first released to the market in April, 2022. Originally announced on May 22, 2019, the console was set for an early 2020 release. After production delays caused by the UsefulNotes/COVD19Pandemic, the system was shipped to preorder backers in July 2021 and then received a mainstream release in April, 2022.

The device is designed as a very simple device. The screen is a one-bit monochrome display that utlizies Memory LCD technology from Sharp, along with a four direction D-Pad and A and B buttons. In addition, the system also features a crank on the side which can be used as an analog control.

True to the system's name, the "Playdate", games for the system are delivered online in "seasons", with one new game releasing per week every season. The console's first season which started at launch, includes 24 games. In addition, the console is open-source so games can be sideloaded.
