PS5 Still Outselling PS4 in USA Despite Much Higher Price and Fewer Exclusives

PS5 lifetime sales in the USA remain 1% ahead of PS4 at the same point in their lifespans, now in the 71st month of the PS5 generation, per Circana analyst Mat Piscatella. PS5 is also 30% ahead of PS3 at the equivalent point, though 2026 sales alone put it 3% behind PS4. The base PS5 currently sells for $650 and PS5 Pro for $900, versus $200 for a PS4 bundle with three games at the same stage last generation.
