Sony has sold over 7.8 million PS5 consoles, out selling the PS4 in the same period. This is despite supply shortages for parts to produce the PS5.
Taken from VG247… The PS5 is off to a phenomenal start, according to Sony’s latest earnings report, as the company reveals the new console has sold over 7.8 million units.
According to the latest financial report, Sony managed to ship 4.5 million PS5 units worldwide by the end of 2020, meaning that a further 3.3 million units have since been sold in 2021. There may be an issue with scarcity, but that’s not stopping Sony from hitting some major milestones.
This means that Sony has met a major target it set for itself and the lifetime sales of the PS5, exceeding the number of PS4 shipments it made in the same period after the console’s launch in 2013-2014. We know that the PS5 was the biggest console launch ever for Sony – we also now know that its first few months on sale were the best, too.
