PS5 sales top 50 million units

Sony Interactive Entertainment has announced PS5 sales have topped 50 million units, a new milestone for the Sony flagship game console.

“Achieving this PS5 sales milestone is a testament to the unwavering support of the global PlayStation community and their passion for the incredible experiences created by the talented developers from PlayStation Studios and our partners,” said Jim Ryan, President and CEO of Sony Interactive Entertainment. “We’re grateful for all of our players who have joined the PS5 journey so far, and we’re thrilled that this is the first holiday season since launch that we have a full supply of PS5 consoles – so anyone who wants to get one can get one.”

The PS5 was originally released back in 2020 and in two variants: the full PS5 and its slightly cheaper digital-only PS5.
