PlayStation 4 Now Hits 6.2 Million Units Sold


About a weeks ago, Sony Computer Entertainment President Andrew House, revealed that the PlayStation 4 surpassed six million in 57 countries all across the world following the successful launch in Japan where Sony sold 370,000 console! The PS4 clearly has become gamers next gen console of choice.

With the latest NPD  sales-tracking released, gamers have spent $887 million on games, hardware and accessories, this is of course by February 2014.

According to the NPD Group, the total hardware sales for the month were $347 million. Meanwhile, Microsoft has managed to have sold 258,000 Xbox Ones where  Sony sold an estimated 290,000 PlayStation 4s.

PS4 led hardware sales in February 2014, but by a narrow margin with Xbox One selling over 90 percent of what the PS4 sold in terms of unit sales,” said Callahan. “However, with Xbox One’s higher price point, it led hardware sales on a dollar basis.

To  compare Xbox One with the PS4 sale, last we heard as of  January 23rd 2014,  Microsoft revealed the Xbox One sold  3.9 million worldwide. While Sony shipped 5.86 million in total and that particular figure was expected to rise to 6.2 million and look at that, the PlayStation has managed to hit that milestone as well. Xbox One on the other hand, if you generate the last sales figure with the new one, It should be around  4.1 million.
