While the PS4 and Xbox One did get temporary boosts of sales numbers when this pandemic first started, the sales numbers now are back to reality with the PS4 still going down YoY overall. It's obviously expected to be down YoY when the PS5 is around the corner, however if the corona boost was so major the PS4 sales should be up YoY and should be selling at least around 200K+ a week, but numbers are now back to reality for the PS4/Xbox One.

Before the pandemic the PS4 was down 30% YoY (for Jan+Feb). But for the period of March-July the PS4 has been up 5.8% YoY. Sales aren't back to reality either both PS4 and XBO were both still up YoY in July.

The PS4 YoY didn't jump anywhere near 92% like the Switch did. Plus Sony's recent financial report showed the PS4 was down YoY Worldwide in the 1st Quarter which shows corona isn't having much of a major affect in sales anymore.
