Another month, another update from Sony on the sales statistics for their PlayStation 4 console. According to internal reporting, which is current as of February 8, the company has now sold 5.3 million PS4 systems worldwide since the console launched in November 2013.
“I am thrilled that so many customers around the globe have continued to select PS4 as the best place to play throughout and beyond the holiday season,” said Andrew House, President and CEO of Sony Computer Entertainment. “We are delighted that according to the NPD Group’s latest data, PS4 was January’s top-selling console in the United States. The PS4 system’s momentum just keeps growing stronger, and we are extremely grateful for the continued passion and support of PlayStation fans.”
Sony’s new PS4 sales total is an increase of 1.1 million consoles over their last announcement in January (for sales through December 28, 2013). And the system’s acceptance should only grew from here as the PS4 is scheduled to launch in Japan this Saturday, February 22.
