PS5 Ships 97.9 Million Units as of September 2026

Sony Interactive Entertainment in its financial results announced it has shipped 97.9 million PlayStation 5 consoles as of September 30, 2026.

With 97.9 million PlayStation 5 consoles shipped that means 2.6 million units were shipped from July to September. This is down 1.4 million (-35%) from the same quarter last year when 4.0 million units were shipped.

For reference, the PlayStation 4 had shipped 2.8 million units in the same quarter for a lifetime total of 103.0 million units shipped as of September 30, 2019. This puts the PS5 behind shipped PS4 units by 5.1 million units.

There were a total of 88.2 million games sold on the PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 for the quarter. This is up 7.9 million (10%) from 80.3 million during the same period a year earlier. Digital sales accounted for XX percent of software sales.

There were 8.2 million first-party games sold across the PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4. This is up 1.9 million from 6.3 million a year ago.

There were 127 million monthly active users on the PlayStation Network, an increase of eight million from 119 million a year ago.
