PlayStation 4 Sales Top 2.1 Million After International Launch
After selling 1 million units through to customers at the November 15, 2013, North American PlayStation 4 launch, Sony has hit another milestone. The European and Latin American rollout has pushed sales past the 2.1 million mark.
The PlayStation 4 is now available in 32 countries, with a Japanese release slated for February 22, 2014. Consoles are in short supply right now, but Sony's Andrew House told Game Informer last month that he expects the company will be supplying throughout the holidays.
Our Take
If Sony manages to keep supply flowing through the holidays, not only will the numbers continue to rise as fast as units hit shelves, but Sony will keep families happy. There are few things as frustrating as camping out a store day after day just hoping for new supply to arrive.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
