Sony shouldn’t be too happy about this, either. And it seems to have an interesting solution to this problem: to continue producing PS4 and PS4 Pro as an alternative to PS5!
Sony had originally planned to stop production of the PS4 at the end of 2021. But now it looks like another million PlayStation 4s could leave the factory in 2022.
