The company disclosed details in the financial report
Sony reported for the next financial quarter, and at the same time revealed fresh data on console sales.
So, at the time of the report, PlayStation 5 sales amounted to almost 55 million units. For comparison: at the end of December the figure was 50 million. Now the PS5 is one step away from the Xbox One, which has sold about 58 million units over the entire period. Apparently, at the end of the current quarter, PS5 will overtake this console and rise to 14th place in the list of best-selling consoles of all time. Perhaps it will immediately overtake the classic NES with its 62 million. During the current quarter, Sony sold 8.2 million consoles.
However, despite good sales, Sony revised its goal for the entire financial year. If earlier the company wanted to sell 25 million PS5, now the goal is — 21 million
Sony also noted that in the next fiscal year, which is from April 2024 to March 2025, the company will not release a single game from internal studios based on already known major franchises.
