European PS5 console sales were up almost 200% year-on-year in August, thanks in part to increased availability and recent price promotions which have helped fuel speculation that Sony is attempting to clear stock ahead of plans to launch a new model with a detachable disc drive.
The company said in July that PS5 sales had topped 40 million worldwide. PS4 remains its fastest-selling console to reach the milestone, having hit 40 million sales two months sooner, but it didn’t face the same Covid-related supply issues that checked PS5’s momentum.
Sony is aiming to ship 25 million PS5 consoles during its current fiscal year ending in March 2024. If achieved, it would beat a 25-year-old console sales record set when the original PlayStation shipped 22.6 million units over a 12-month period.
