Sony PlayStation 4 passes 7 million in worldwide sales
The PlayStation 4 continues its steady sales climb, hitting another milestone nearly one month to the day Sony announced its console had surpassed 6 million units sold.
Sarah Tew/CNETSony's PlayStation 4 console has been steadily racking up sales since its November launch, and it doesn't appear to be slowing down any time soon. In March, Sony announced that the PS4 had surpassed 6 million units sold globally. Now, as of April 6, that number has climbed to 7 million.
'The PS4 journey has just begun, and although we are still facing difficulties keeping up with the strong demand worldwide, we remain steadfast in our commitment to meet the needs of our customers, and surpassing the wildest expectations of gamers by delivering new user experiences that inspire and engage,' said Andrew House, president and CEO of Sony Computer Entertainment Inc., in a press release.
Sony also announced that PS4 software has reached 20.5 million copies sold worldwide both through retail and its PlayStation Store as of April 13.
The PS4 is currently available in 72 countries, with one of the larger additions being Japan, where Sony began selling its console on February 22. By March 4, 370,000 units had been sold in the country -- and likely contributed greatly this month to the next million unit milestone -- even as the PS4 enters its fifth month on the market in the US.
