PlayStation 5 has now shipped more than 100 million units worldwide. Sony Interactive Entertainment updated its official sales data page with the milestone on November 10, 2026, two days before the console’s sixth birthday and about a week before GTA 6 launches on November 19.
The figure counts consoles shipped to stores, which Sony calls sell-in, not consoles sold to players.
PS5 shipped about 2.1 million units in the last 40 days
Sony’s own quarterly table put PS5 at 97.9 million shipped as of September 30, 2026. Passing 100 million by November 10 means at least 2.1 million more went out in the 40 days since.
This year’s shipments are running behind last year
The milestone comes in a slower year. PS5 shipped 1.6 million units in April to June 2026 and 2.6 million in July to September, against 2.5 million and 4.0 million in the same quarters of 2025. The console’s best year was the fiscal year ending March 2024, at 20.8 million.
PS5 is about 2 million away from passing the original PlayStation
Sony’s page lists its older consoles too. The original PlayStation shipped more than 102.4 million, PS4 more than 117 million, and PS2 more than 160 million, still the record. At the pace of the last 40 days, PS5 would pass the original PlayStation around the end of the year.
PS5 launched on November 12, 2020. Sony has already said PS6 is on schedule, with development spending starting in April 2027, so PS5 still has room to climb before its successor arrives.
