Sony is finally addressing the concern of many, and it is two years later, after its first release of the latest console in its lineup, the PlayStation 5. It was previously known to have limited stocks due to internal components and chip shortages, and the public had to look for scalpers, bots, and monitoring retail stores to get their hands on the console.
Production will be booming soon, and it will be raining PS5 consoles for restocks in different locations.

According to a report by GameIndustryBiz, Veronica Rogers, Sony Interactive Entertainment's Senior Vice President and Head of global sales and business operations, said that PS5 production will "ramp up" in the remaining months of 2022.
It only means that the company sees a good sign in the many factors surrounding its production, particularly the internal components shortage that the PS5 suffered in the past.
Rogers said that deliverables would come soon after this significant boost, and it will ensure that its stock is ongoing for everyone that requires or wants one, having a device for themselves. Sony gets some pressure off its production on the PS5 that previously cut back on its deliveries due to the chip shortage problem that most industries have a hard time managing.

PS5: Going to Normal Stock Releases Soon? Sony Prevails
ComicBook Gaming said that this statement means that Sony will soon be able to deliver on their end for those still looking for the console during this time. However, there are no announcements on when these stocks will arrive, and it would most likely be towards the end of the year or by 2023, which is still a long time from now.
PS5, Chip Shortage, and Stock Monitoring
The PlayStation 5 was released last November 2020, and the consoles were unavailable to the public until December when those that were able to preorder received the console a month later. However, the preorder immediately sold out, and the people had to look for stock trackers and scalpers to get their hands on the device.
People dived into Reddit, Twitter, Discord, and other forums to get information regarding the new console, and the public was intent to purchase the latest generation console from Sony. Nevertheless, there are still many disputes in this case, as some get a disadvantage in lines and check out the console.
The chip shortage is a massive player here, as Sony had to cut back on its production before to make way for delivering different batches.
The massive demand met stocks at the start of the year, and since the pandemic toned down and let many industries recover, the shortage of internal components became less significant. There is still a shortage, but it is more manageable now than before.
