Sonyhas announced thatPlayStation 5 has enjoyed its best sales quarter yet, selling 7.1 million units in the three months ended June 14, 2025 to reach 32 million consoles shipped.
It means PS5 console sales have now reached 12.8 million for the first three quarters of Sony’s FY2022, which is the best the console has managed in a fiscal year so far (up 34% year-on-year).
It originally included 20 games (10 first-party and 10 third-party) beforePersona 5 was removed in May 2022.
The collection includesGod of War, Fallout 4,Mortal Kombat,Uncharted4, Ratchet and Clank,Days Gone, Until Dawn, Detroit, Battlefield 1, Infamous Second Son, Batman Arkham Knight, The Last Guardian, The Last of Us Remastered,Resident Evil7, Bloodborne and Monster Hunter World.
The feature was made available at PS5’s launch in 2020 as a perk for owners of the new-gen console only.
At the time, SIE CEOJim Ryansaid he hadn’tdecided if the PlayStation Plus Collection would be expandedbeyond its initial launch line-up.
“Well, we’re going to wait and see how the world receives the Plus Collection,” he toldGQ. “You know, which games are played how much they’re played before we make any decisions about that.
“We think it’s potentially going to be a great user acquisition tool. Arguably if you never had a PS4 and you choose to buy a PS5 you basically get a PS4, right?”
Ryan has said that a subscription model likeXboxGame Pass“doesn’t make any sense” for Sony‘s first-party operation, considering its focus on big-budget games.
Sony officially confirmedFebruary’s PlayStation Plus Essential gameson Wednesday. They are OlliOlli World, Mafia Definitive Edition, Evil Dead: The Game andDestiny2: Beyond Light.
