During its most recent financial report, Sony proudly reported that the last quarter of last year put more than 7 million PS5 consoles on the market thanks to an excellent Christmas period. With this, the total number of PlayStation 5 (PS5) offered for sale around the world, including Colombia, reaches 32 million, confirming what Jim Ryan recently said about the end of the console shortage period.
In the same report, the company says that the number of active PS Plus subscribers rose to 46.6 million, nearing the peak of 48 million it had a few years ago. For his part, God of War Ragnarök It was a success that has already exceeded 11 million copies sold. This created an atmosphere of optimism that led Sony to set a goal of selling 19 million PS5 consoles in the next fiscal year.
This success and the alleged end of the shortage of PlayStation 5 (PS5) consoles for sale is also felt in Colombia, where we can see greater availability —we find it easier in stores— and with a relatively low price even despite the recent price increase announcement.
If we visit the web pages of chain stores such as Alcosto o Falabella we can see consoles for sale with prices ranging between 3 and a half million and just over 4 million. Although it is not especially cheap, it is a big change from what we saw last year, when it was not uncommon to find it at more than 5 million pesos. Even resellers have had to lower prices.
