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. |
The ps4s peak year was 20% lower then the 25 million the ps5 is aiming for and the ps5 is already behind the ps4s peak year so it has a lot to make up to reach that figure. Where I'm from the ps5 has an €80 price cut and has never been easier to find. I'm not saying it's impossible or anything but that is a very difficult figure to reach for almost any console.
