PlayStation 5 sales reach 21.7 million units

Sony has published the financial report regarding the first quarter of this fiscal year, which includes the results from April 1, 2022 until June 30. With the PlayStation 5 sales data, we know that at least 21.7 million consoles have already been distributed, that is, 2.4 million in the three months that correspond. The data, therefore, involve an increase of 400,000 units with respect to the previous quarter, and 100,000 more than the same period of time in the year 2021, figures that probably remain marked and limited by production problems.

However, in relation to its division of games and services, 4,500 million dollars were generated during this quarter, which implies a slight drop of 2% with respect to the same section of time last year.

This decrease is attributed mainly to a decrease in sales of own and third-party titles, as well as additional content: between April and June 47.1 million games were sold in total between PS4 and PS5, 26% less than in the same months of the previous year (63.6 million).

From Gamesindustry they blame the fall, in part, to the catalog of own games that was launched last year, with mlb the show, returnal and ratchet & clank: rift apartment, while in that section of 2022 they have only launched mlb the show (if It is true that Horizon: Forbidden West continues to add sales).

The proportion of digital sales, by the way, continues to ascend and is placed at 79% compared to 71% of the previous year, so we can consider that only one in five games come with a box in the case of Sony.

Sony Going to the issue of services, there is also cloth to cut. The total number of PlayStation Plus users is 47.3 million, above 46.3 million a year earlier, so it would not be crazy attributed to the renewal of the subscription despite the fact that there is a slight decrease with Regarding the previous quarter, with 47.4 million subscribers. As for PlayStation Network, active users have been 102 million between April and June, below 105 million of the same section of 2021 and 106 million last quarter.

With respect to total operating income, 37% decreased a bit negligible with respect to last year due to this decrease in games sales and cost growth, mainly in the development of titles of their main studies.

Although from the future Sony provides sales worth 86,500 million dollars in this fiscal year in its division of games and services, above the 85,700 they estimated in the last results, short-term expectations are not so Optimists: As for operational income, their predictions have decreased to 16% less due to investments in studies. Here also passes the purchase of Bungie , since the disbursement of its acquisition for 3.6 billion dollars became official before the date they had planned.
