## Summary

Sony’s PlayStation 5 has passed 100 million consoles shipped to retailers, reaching the milestone on 10 November, almost six years after launch. The figure marks a major sales achievement, bringing the PS5 close to the PS4’s 117 million and the original PlayStation’s 102.4 million, but it does not count only consoles already bought by consumers.

Recent sales have slowed: Sony reported 2.6 million PS5s shipped in the second quarter of its 2026 financial year, down from 4 million in the same quarter a year earlier. That was the lowest second quarter since launch, though higher than the previous quarter’s 1.6 million; repeated price rises are cited as a major factor in the wider downturn, while Sony’s revenue strategy has helped protect its bottom line.
