Will the PS5 outsell the PS4?

To put your post into perspective, the PS3 sold 12M copies in 2012, the equivalent year to 2026 for the PS5.

2012 was a year with pretty much no relevant games released. The Xbox 360 was in direct competition selling 11M as well.

You expect the PS5 to sell less than that.

And on top of that, that was only 2.5M drop from it's peak year. PS5's peak year was 21.4M. Or 2012 was 82% of the peak year for the PS3. I think 15M is the absolute floor for 2026 PS5 year. And this is in the worst possible scenario

If the PS5 sells 15M in 2025, it'll sell more than that in 2026.

Unless the pricing keeps getting higher and higher until December 2026, it won't sell less.
