The PlayStation 5 has reached 100 million units sold as of November 10, 2026, according to Sony's official console sales tracking page. Sony reported 2.6 million PS5 sales in the earnings period ending September 30, with another 2 million units sold in October and the first 10 days of November.
The milestone comes ahead of the holiday sales period and follows releases including Marvel's Wolverine and ahead of Grand Theft Auto 6's launch. The 100 million figure represents sell-in numbers, including both units in homes and on store shelves.
After approximately six years on the market, the PS5 trails the PS4 and PS2, which each reached around 103 million sales at similar points in their life cycles, according to industry estimates from Niko Partners analyst Daniel Ahmad. The PS5 outpaces the PS1 and PS3. Among other systems at the six-year mark, the Switch reached 122 million, the DS reached 136 million, and the Xbox Series consoles reached 38 million.
The console achieved this despite significant headwinds. It faced pandemic-era supply constraints at launch, delayed major exclusive titles, and experienced multiple price increases driven by tariffs and component shortages rather than traditional price cuts over its lifecycle. The PS5 launched at a lower price than its current cost.
