While the fierce rivalry between PlayStation and Xbox continues in the game console world, Sony announced its PlayStation 5 sales forecasts recently. The number of sales of the console, which currently surpasses the Xbox Series X|S consoles, still did not please the company.

Sony’s shares fell 8.6 percent

Recently, a report has been published comparing the sales performance of Sony’s game consoles, PlayStation 4 and 5 products. The PS4, which went on sale in the last quarter of 2013, sold 4.5 million units in its first quarter. PS5 also showed similar performance in its first three months, but could not bring it back.

The global chip crisis, which has affected the whole world, continues to show its effects. Many technology companies continue to suffer from this crisis. A few days ago, Sony CFO Hiroki Totoki announced that this problem will stick to their necks throughout 2022, that it will be difficult to find PS 5. After all these developments, the markets showed their reaction to the company.

The company dropped its PS 5 estimate from 14.8 million to 11.5 million units on a yearly basis. After these statements, Sony shares dropped by 8.6 percent compared to Friday. The global chip crisis also affects the company’s biggest competitor, Xbox.

According to expert opinions, it seems difficult for Sony to change this course. According to some reports, the heaviest periods of the semiconductor crisis, which will make its impact felt until 2025, are being experienced. Sony’s biggest brand product, PS 5, has just been introduced. The policy that the company will follow to get rid of this situation is already a matter of curiosity.
