Sony has just released financial results for the fourth and final quarter of the fiscal year ending March 31. This has left us with a series of important data, such as the sales of its consoles or the number of video games that have been purchased around the world.
In the case of PS5 they are already 19.3 million consoles those that have been sold to date, which has meant an increase of two million more from the previous quarter. However, if we compare with the previous fiscal year during the same period of time, 1.3 million fewer units have been sold.
With PS4, it is clear that it is no longer the Sony console that users prefer, because its sales have only increased by 300,000 units since the previous quarter, although it is not bad for the number of years it has been on the market. .
Turning to other matters, the number of PlayStation Plus users has not changed much. It has decreased slightly from the previous quarter, staying at 47.4 million subscribersand has also decreased compared to the same dates last year, at which time it reached 47.6 million users.
In the software section, the situation has gone quite well, because they have acquired 70.5 million games during the last quarter, 9.1 million more compared to the same period of the previous fiscal year.
Going into a little more detail, of that amount, 14.5 million units correspond to first-party titles, while most people still prefer to have their products in digital format, because 71% of sales that have occurred are digital compared to 79% that was obtained the previous year on the same dates.
