Sony is still planning to launch its PlayStation 5 this year, but supply may be constrained. The company is reportedly planning to produce fewer launch units of its new console than it had for the PlayStation 4.
Bloomberg reports that an expected high price at launch will result in lower demand, leading to a decrease in production. As a result, the company is only planning to make 5-6 million units by March 2021. This is as compared to the PS4 launch in 2013, when Sony sold 7.5 million units in the same period. Competition may be driving the decision to go forward with limited supply, as the sources said that if Microsoft doesn't delay Xbox Series X, Sony won't delay PS5.
