PlayStation 5's demand was declared high in May
At a PlayStation business briefing in May, Jim Ryan, Sony Interactive Entertainment's CEO, claimed the company was experiencing “unprecedented demand” for PS5.
During a PlayStation business briefing in May, Sony Interactive Entertainment CEO Jim Ryan declared the company was experiencing “unprecedented demand” for PS5. According to Sony, three US retailer events witnessed PlayStation 5 consoles selling at nearly 1,000 units per minute.
"The one area where we've fallen short of expectation is in our ability to supply the market with consoles. COVID-19 took its toll on our supply chain in 2021.'' Ryan notes. ''The situation is starting to improve, although COVID-related uncertainties persist, specifically in the impact that ongoing lockdowns in Shanghai and Beijing might have. But things are definitely improving.''
“Right now, we’re planning on a significant ramp up in PS5 production this year, allowing us to close the gap versus PS4 in its third year, then to overtake PS4’s year four installed base within FY 2023.''
If you live in the US, Germany, UK, France, Belgium, Netherlands, or Luxembourg and want to purchase a PS5 console through their official website, you can register now for an opportunity to do so!
