Sony Produced Over 6.5 Million PS5 Consoles Last Quarter, Aims to Beat 18 Million Forecast

Sony Interactive Entertainment announced it produced over 6.5 million PlayStation 5 consoles during its quarter 2 of fiscal year 2022, which ended September 30, 2022.

There were 3.3 million PS5 consoles shipped during the quarter to bring lifetime PS5 shipments to 25 million units. That would leave at least 3.2 million PS5 consoles stockpiled by Sony to have ready for the holiday season, as well as for the launch of God of War Ragnarök on November 9.

"Regarding production of PS5 hardware, restrictions on the supply of materials and logistics have significantly eased, and the number of units produced during the quarter exceeded 6.5 million, progressing faster than planned," said Sony.

"We recognize that demand from customers for the PS5 continues to be strong as the actual sales situation at retail stores in the U.S. is such that, in September, it took an average of 17.5 hours to sell out of 100 thousand units after their arrival.

"To meet this strong demand, we will do our utmost to bring forward supply into the year-end holiday selling season and aim to exceed our FY22 forecast of 18 million units."
