PS5 is just 1.2 million units behind PS4, launch aligned, but Sony expects to sell fewer consoles this year…
Also noteworthy that not only are PS5 sales behind PS4, but the PlayStation’s competition has almost entirely disappeared, and that hasn’t resulted in more PlayStations sold.
In case anyone misread the headline the way I did: The PS5 is selling about the same as the PS4 did at this point in its lifespan. The headline kind of makes it sound like the PS4 is still selling as many consoles as the PS5 today.
Honestly, I’m kind of surprised that it’s selling that well at all, considering how much of this generation has just been remasters of PS4 games.
It’s interesting to hear, honestly. And would be interesting to dive in if that’s related to age, culture, country etc… But a little too complicated for analyzing that here.

Thats not misreading, thats them not being clear.
On purpose.
Yes, this means they sold a lot of PS5s, very surprising. The PS4 was extremely successful
Thank you, yes. That’s a Bad headline.
I understood what it was saying. I don’t think it’s a bad headline.
