PlayStation 5 Shipments Reach 100 Million Units

Sony’s PlayStation 5 has reached 100 million shipments. Sony’s official business data page reports that it had shipped over 100 million PS5 consoles worldwide as of November 10, 2026. The figures count shipments to retailers, not sales to consumers.

Timing

The milestone came nearly six years after the PS5’s launch. Sony’s latest financial results put total shipments at 97.9 million as of September 30, so roughly 2.1 million more units reached retailers in about six weeks. Shipments have slowed, with Sony shipping 2.6 million PS5s from July to September, down from 4 million in the same quarter last year.

Comparison With Earlier PlayStation Consoles

The PS4 reached 100 million in about five years and seven months, faster than the PS5. The PS5 is the fourth PlayStation console past 100 million, after the original PlayStation (over 102.4 million), the PS2 (over 160 million) and the PS4 (over 117 million). The PS3 stands at 87.4 million. Sony has not disclosed how many units are standard PS5s, PS5 Slims or PS5 Pros.

Outlook

The milestone comes ahead of GTA VI, which launches on November 19 and has begun preloads. A short sales boost is also possible from Intergalactic: The Last Prophet. Factors such as fewer exclusives, rising prices and Sony’s move away from physical media could affect future orders.
