It is an awkward time to launch a game, so I am surprised it did pretty well.

Not really, half the world is still in lock down, nothing else to do.

The sales mix is interesting though, clearly PS4 owners have stopped buying games as they're waiting for a PS5 or just tired of their system. PS5 owners despite how hungry they are, are still a tiny userbase. So I guess that is the awkwardness being referred to. For now the eagerness of PS5 owners is compensating well enough. PC sales are probably a disproportionately high % of digital sales as a result.
