Sony has announced its consolidated financial results for the 2022 fiscal year, which ends on March 31st, 2023. It confirmed that the PS5 hit 38.4 million worldwide shipments in its lifetime, with 6.3 million shipped in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year. That’s up from last year’s 4.3 million shipments. It’s also the most a console has ever shipped in a year’s Q1 period.

Other noteworthy figures include 47.4 million subscribers to PlayStation Plus, similar to last year, and 108 million monthly active PSN users, up two million year-over-year. The PS4 and PS5 sold 68 million software units combined in the quarter ending March 31st, down 2.5 million from last year. Of that total, first-party titles accounted for 9.5 million sales, a big drop from 14.5 million sold in the same period the year prior.

About 70 percent of software sales were full-game digital downloads, down by one percent from the previous year. With the console’s next big exclusive being Final Fantasy 16 in June, it remains to be seen how the current fiscal quarter will shake out. Stay tuned for more details in the meantime.
