The Chinese mini-prefix with similar marketplaces costs $ 150 instead of $ 500, for which they plan to sell Russian PlaySpace. Russian PlayStation, which Russian leader Vladimir Putin ordered to develop until June 15, was found on AliExpress marketplaces. About it writes the Russian edition of The Moscow Times. Moreover, the price of this mini-precipitate of Chinese origin with similar technical characteristics, as in the future Russian Playspace, was three times cheaper-just more than $ 150.

According to the newspaper "Izvestia", the numbers of the Moscow Times, students of the Don State Technical University (DDTU) had to "develop" this prefix for 47 thousand rubles. According to the newspaper, Russian Playspace, built on the basis of the Intel Atom X5 processor, should be equipped with 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of flash memory. Its cost is about 50 thousand rubles. In fact, the Russian analogue of Playspace has undergone serious criticism of experts.

The game will have to be distributed by the free-to-play model-free installation, but payment of content.
