Japan Sales Charts: PS5 Is Slowing But Still Soaring | Push Square

pushsquare.com:

PS5 has absolutely exploded in Japan this year, crossing the three million units milestone, and overtaking the PS4 and PS3 launch aligned. An influx of stock availability has absolutely catapulted the console to extraordinary numbers domestically, but things are very slowly beginning to level off now. Case in point: this week the system sold 64,869 units – still impressive, but a little lighter than earlier in the year.

Of course, Sony will be looking to the launch of Resident Evil 4 to help boost things later this month. This week, software sales weren’t particularly impressive, but a trio of PlayStation titles did make the top ten, with Hogwarts Legacy and Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty continuing to stick around. Fatal Frame: Mask of the Lunar Eclipse was one of two new launches, shifting 9,031 physical copies on the PS4. The latest data, as provided by Famitsu, is below.

A true PlayStation veteran, Sammy's covered the world of PS gaming for years, with an enormous Trophy count to prove it. He also likes tennis games way more than you.

It’s good to see ps5 doing well everywhere.

@4kgk2 This year has basically been a relaunch.

Weird to see the Series X have so many sales compared to S this week considering that the lifetime sales are lower. I wonder if people only bought S because there were no X consoles around.

Another reason why PS5 Pro does not make too much sense. By the time people get the current version, a marketing campaign may try (if the rumors are true) to tell them they should get the newer, shinier PS5 Pro.

@extragood I think pro rumors are fake we barely have any next gen only games taken advantage of the current ps5.

Nice to see Project Zero pretty high in the software chart ^__^
