    SIE today announced that PS5 sales (Sold Through, that is, actual sales) exceeded 40 million, in 32 months and 15 days. By comparison, the PS4 reached this milestone in 30 months and six days. Officials said that due to the impact of the pandemic, PS5 host supply chain problems, inventory can not meet the market demand. It is only now that PS5 supply is sufficient and pent-up demand has finally been met.

    Challenges faced by SIE team and partners during PS5 launch due to COVID-19

    When the PS5 launched in November 2020, the world was in a completely different space-time background than when the PS5 console was first exposed in 2019. Despite the unprecedented challenges of COVID-19, the SIE team and partners are working hard to launch the PS5 console on schedule.

    Because of the staggering blows of the pandemic, it has taken months for the supply chain to resume normal operations and for inventories to gradually catch up with market demand. But now that the PS5 is fully stocked, the market can expect its demands to be met.

With more than 2,500 PS5 games now available, from indie titles to AAA hits, there’s never been a better time to play. In the last two months alone, PS5 saw impressive new titles from partners like Final Fantasy XVI, Diablo IV, and Street Fighter 6.

    Accessories for PS5 customization and personal style
