LONDON, ENGLAND - MARCH 28: A detailed view of a PS4 controller as players practice during day one of the 2019 ePremier League Finals at Gfinity Arena on March 28, 2019 in London, England.

When Sony launched the new PlayStation 5 back in November 2020, the demand for this console quickly increased. As of writing, some fans are still unable to have their own consoles. 

Major issues prevent them from having their beloved PS5 units. These include SoC scarcity, scalpers, as well as other consumers. 

This is why gaming experts advise buyers to choose PS4, as it still offers some features compared to those integrated into the more advanced PlayStation 5. 

Now, Sony is expected to solve this issue. Here are the efforts it will make to ensure that enough PS5 consoles will be released.

The company also said that the Russia-Ukraine conflict also affects logistics and potential parts inventory for its PS5 consoles. 

Of course, the chipset shortage also affects the company's PlayStation 5 productions. Now, Sony shared its plans to ensure that it can meet the PS5 demands of its consumers in the following months and years. 

The first effort of Sony is to source from multiple suppliers, allowing it to have greater agility in unstable market conditions. 

The second effort focuses on retaining its ongoing negotiations to maintain optimal delivery routes for the PS5 console.     

PS5 Sales To Overtake PS4 Revenues 

According to Engadget's latest report, once Sony meets the rising PS5 demands, its PlayStation 5 sales are expected to overtake the revenues generated from PS4 consoles.
