PS5 sold 20 million units globally

The PlayStation 5 console has just passed a significant milestone in sales.

According to GamesIndustry and Veronica Rogers (head of global sales and business at Sony Interactive Entertainment), the console has been sold over 20 million times worldwide.

According to the statement, it does not say whether these figures were sold-in numbers to retailers or sold through estimates to customers. The most recent update was for 19.3 millions sold by March 2022.

It’s worthwhile to read the following, as well as the plans for major production.
