| pikashoe said: It'll be very difficult to reach that target, considering the ps4 only ever reached 20 million in a fiscal year and the ps5 is already behind that year. It's possible, but hard to see happening with how few first party releases sony have coming in the next few months. Spiderman will definitely shift a lot of consoles but they'll need more to hit this target. |
Very difficult is hyperbolic.
The PlayStation 5 is only 0.2 behind PS4's Q1 at its peak year. This is with the PlayStation 5 being sold at higher price tag than the PlayStation 4, and having a price hike on top of that. Even the temporary price cut, which saw massive gains for the PS5 in many markets, was only for $50. A new PS5 model with a $399 price tag is going to smash all sorts of records.
Even if Sony doesn't meet their 25M projection, I still expect this current FY for the PS5 to be comfortably above the PS4's peak (1M - 2M+), and it may slightly beat the PS2's peak.
