After Sony's next-generation game console PS5 came into the market, the hot sales and global shortage can be said to be the two most significant phenomena.

According to the statistics of VGChartz, a foreign game data website, the PS5 sold 3.73 million units worldwide in just five weeks after its launch, leading the 2.33 million Nintendo Switch and the competing Microsoft Xbox Series X/S (2.01 million units) launched in the same period, accounting for 46.2% of the three host camps.

Specifically, in each major market, after its launch, the PS5 has achieved sales of 1.54 million units and 1.3 million units respectively in the U.S. and European markets, leading the three next-generation host products, while in Japan, the sales of the PS5 is 226500 units, lagging behind the switch's 566000 units.

In order to improve production capacity and solve the problem of shortage, the recent news from the industry chain pointed out that AMD has obtained more 7nm process capacity of TSMC to contract the customized chips carried by the PS5. According to estimates of industry chain people, the output of the PS5 is expected to reach 16.8 million to 18 million units next year driven by the increase of production capacity.

The version of the Bank of China that was rumored to be released in December seems unlikely to be launched within this year. Takeren Tian, vice chairman of Sony Interactive Entertainment (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., said this month that the Bank of China version of PS5 is actively preparing.
