That’s more than any other financial year since the console went on sale in November 2020. However, PS5 narrowly missed Sony’s sales target of 21 million, itself revised down from its initial, ultra aggressive sales target of 25 million. PS5 sold 4.5 million units in the fourth quarter of the financial year, down from 6.3 million during the same quarter the prior year. Sony has now said it expects PS5 sales to decline during the console’s fourth year on sale to 18 million units. Sony, which just announced Hideaki Nishino and Hermen Hulst as the new CEOs of Sony Interactive Entertainment, said it expects profits to rise 7% as the lower sales will mean smaller hardware losses, and it expects higher revenue from the PlayStation Plus subscription service. Countering this, however, is the expected negative impact of a decrease in sales of first-party titles. Sony has indicated no new games from its major franchises will be released during the current financial year, ruling out new titles in the Spider-Man and God of War franchises.
