Sony sold 3.4 million PlayStation 5s in the first four weeks since the console was launched. Probably the highest numbers that are seen in the history of the PlayStation.

Sony is reportedly planning to ship between 16.8 and 18 million PlayStation 5s throughout 2021. In addition, in January the Japanese company will reserve a larger number of units for the Asian market. Assuming the trend between Sony and Microsoft continued, the Xbox Series X / S would have sold just over 2 million units . It seems to fall behind the 3.4 million PlayStation 5, but the reality is that both are selling really well, the only limitation being the stock . Sony seems to have started production earlier or even to have reserved a greater number of AMD chips than Microsoft.
