AMD, Sony Mark PS5’s 100 Million Unit Milestone with Signed Consoles

Sony has confirmed that PlayStation 5 shipments have passed 100 million units, making it the fourth Sony system to reach that milestone. Sony and long-time partner AMD marked the achievement by having PlayStation chief executive Hideaki Nishino and AMD executive Jack Huynh sign newly made consoles.

The article says the PS5 has approached the PS4’s lifetime sales despite costing more than twice as much at the same stage. It credits the milestone to Sony navigating pandemic disruption, semiconductor shortages, US tariffs, a weak global economy and rising component costs, while noting that the console’s performance and games have been strong.
