PlayStation 5 Sales Are Down, But Console Market Still Holds Strong - IGN Daily Fix

In today's Daily Fix:
Sony is admitting their sales numbers for the PS5 are down year-over-year, but it's not all bad news. Monthly active users are actually up (meaning the people that have PS5's are playing them a lot more), and according to Circana, the console market overall is holding strong. The Nintendo Switch is only a million or so units away from taking the PlayStation 2's crown as best-selling console of all time, and the Xbox Series consoles are keeping pace with the much-loved Xbox 360 in terms of sales. In other news, Star Wars: Jedi Survivor is heading to last-gen consoles, despite what was previously claimed that PS4 and Xbox One would not be able to handle it. And finally, fans of Prey and Dishonored should be quite pleased with the new game from Arkane Studios' co-founder.

PlayStation is in trouble Sony is a failing company having to poor in millions of extra dollars into keeping bungie afloat lol

[xerorenegado]

Yeah nobody has $400-$600 to spend on a new console without game

[van_arkride]

Hey Sony, look at Nintendo. They sell like crazy because THEY HAD TON OF GAMES!!

[nerto]

As always Ign minoritizing the bad news about Play Station but it's not Xbox because the bad news lasts for months hahaha

[eXclusive]

Forgettable console, Horizon, GoW, Dead Island, Armoured Core, Spider Man…ALL MID! Rubbish console!!!

[kbmahan]

Not sure why we should care about console sells but this is pretty epic

[CINEMARTYR]

Jedi Survivor runs so bad on PS5, image what it’s like on PS4

[Dtree]

They gotta release some games man...exclusives. a new uncharted game would be great

[isntchrisl]

It's crazy that raising the price didn't increase PS5 sales.

[btwiusearch]

still releasing ps4 games and wonder why ps5 sales aren't going as well as hoped

[BOSSSHAWN]

That’s 61 million shipped buddy. Only 50 million people actually have a PS5.

[professorimortal]

No games on PS 5 dead end PS 5 is dead

[Jonnys_Adventrues]

That’s because they have No actual games to play! Maybe if Sony and the game companies would get there shite together they wouldn’t have that problem.

[ForiamStudios]

They are down because exclusives have been slow. But we have to also realise they are slow because games on this hardware take a while

[RAWRMAND]

And to think nobody could get one when they first launched.

[MrJblazini]

Lol man yall have no shame. Protect Sony at all cost

[keenangovender]

They release 1 SIE exclusive every 2 or 3 years and release games for ps4. Of course it will be low

[Silver---]

You'd think almost 4 years in we'd have a official PS5 price cut and a sling of killer exclusives this generation is very meh.

[Boss_Fight_Index_muki]

Using Next-Gen footage of Jedi Survivor to sell the PS4 version of the game borders on false advertising.
