The presentation arrives against a mixed backdrop for PlayStation’s game business. Game File’s data shows Sony’s first-party game sales peaked at 58.4 million copies in fiscal 2020 and then fell for five straight years before a small uptick in FY2025. That rebound lifted sales from 28.9 million in FY2024 to 32.1 million in FY2025, helped by Ghost of Yotei. kotaku.com Sony's Disappointing PS5 Generation Captured In One Chart Ghost of Yotei PS5 Sony By Ethan Gach Published June 2, 2026 | Comments ( 65 ) It’s not just you, the PlayStation 5 console… kotaku.com standard-tier 2026-06-02 View full article → gamesindustry.biz PlayStation first-party sales see modest rebound after half-decade decline PlayStation first-party game sales increased from 28.9 million to 32.1 million copies in FY2025, marking a modest improvement over the past five years.

Even with the improvement, the broader trend still shows how uneven Sony’s first-party pipeline has been since the PS5 launched. The cited data says Sony sold less than half as many first-party games in 2024 as it did in 2020, a year that included The Last of Us Part II, Ghost of Tsushima, Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales, and Demon’s Souls. The charts also point to longer AAA development cycles and inconsistent studio output as key reasons behind the slowdown. kotaku.com Sony's Disappointing PS5 Generation Captured In One Chart Ghost of Yotei PS5 Sony By Ethan Gach Published June 2, 2026 | Comments ( 65 ) It’s not just you, the PlayStation 5 console… kotaku.com standard-tier 2026-06-02 View full article → gamesindustry.biz PlayStation first-party sales see modest rebound after half-decade decline PlayStation first-party game sales increased from 28.9 million to 32.1 million copies in FY2025, marking a modest improvement over the past five years.
