The PS5 Is Now The Fastest Selling PlayStation Ever With Over 10 Million Units Sold

And that number will keep on growing

Sony has announced via the SIE Blog that the PlayStation 5 has sold over 10 million units as of July 18, 2021, making it the fastest-selling PlayStation console in the company’s history. This huge sales figure has been achieved in roughly eight months, with the next-gen console having released in November of 2020.

It’s an impressive feat, especially when you consider the impact that the global pandemic would have caused. Within the blog post, Veronica Rogers, Senior Vice President of Global Sales and Business Operations at SIE, had this to say about the PS5’s success:

Pushing through supply challenges and a global pandemic, we’re proud to have delivered a transformational gaming experience that is captivating players around the world. Everyone at SIE put their all into making the PlayStation experience better than ever.

We are incredibly grateful to our fans for the terrific reception of PS5 and our growing portfolio of gaming entertainment. Without your support and confidence, this early success would not have been possible. We are making steady progress with available global supply and can’t wait for the day when everyone who wants a PS5 can easily get one.
