Good thing Europe is here to save the PS5's holiday season and potentially its entire 2026. It's about time they started pushing it super hard in the best region for Playstation. Also why isn't the 2008 November for the DS listed? That one was the record until the PS5 took it a couple years ago.

Launch aligned the PS5 is 4.5m behind the PS4 in Europe. It was able to close the gap by a little over 1m in November.

If December holds well for PS5 I'd be tempted to bring back the PS5 vs PS4 monthly comparison article and drop some other comparison that ain't happening (XS vs X1 or PS5+XS vs PS4+X1)

That gap closing a lot will make up for it potentially losing its lead in the US within the next several months or so. I'd keep the PS5+XS vs PS4+X1 comparison going for another year at least since assuming no more delays there will be the impact of GTA 6's release by the end of the year and it should be known by then if the PS6 is coming out in 2027 or not and if it's not it'll get more interesting since the gap should close a lot after next year if it's 2028.
