Since the next-gen console was launched in November, both the regular PS5, priced at $499, and the PS5 Digital Edition, priced at $399, have sold out within hours as soon as stock drops have landed.
Speaking on Wednesday as Sony announced its financial results for the third quarter of 2020, the company chief financial officer Hiroki Totoki admitted demand was likely to outstrip supply for the coming months.
“It is difficult for us to increase production of the PS5 amid the shortage of semiconductors and other components,” Totoki said in a briefing.
“We have not been able to fully meet the high level of demand from customers [but] we continue to do everything in our power to ship as many units as possible to customers who are waiting for a PS5.”
