Sony published new sales information – timing it to Paris Games Week was somewhat bound to happen.

The Japanese company revealed its financial results, which you can read here. We learned that in roughly four years, a total of 67.5 million PlayStation 4s were shipped by September 30 this year. In the second quarter (from the start of July to the end of September), 4.2 million were shipped, which is a 0.3 million year-on-year improvement.

Because of the improvement, Sony corrected its expectations: in the 2017 business year (April 1, 2017 – March 31, 2018), they expect 19 million PlayStation 4s to be shipped instead of 18 million. If the company reaches this result, then 79 million consoles would be shipped by April, which is an outstanding result.
