According to foreign media 0451games, PS5 became the highest-selling host in the Indian market in 2021, and it is doubtful that the ratio of PS5 and Xbox Series X |S in the Indian market in 2021 is said to be 10:1. Foreign media said that the data comes from supply chain channels, and more than 90% of the PS5 sold in India is an optical drive version, not a digital version.
This article summarizes as follows:
The PS5 is the best-selling console in India in 2021
The PS5 sells 10 times more than the Xbox Series, which sells 6,000
The first year of PS5 sales was the PS4's two-year sales in the Indian market
Marvel Spider-Man: Miles is the highest-selling PS5 game
PS5 and XS have such a high sales lag in India, and the authors believe that there are three reasons for this phenomenon:
Sony has been actively supplying supplies since its launch in the Indian market in February 2021, sometimes even twice a month, not only online, but also offline stores that have been replenished;
Second, Sony pays more attention to the exposure of physical stores. A number of Sony centers, consumer electronics chains and game stores across the country have allowed Sony to enter and re-decorate retail stores under the PS5 brand;
Third, and most importantly, Sony has ensured the proper supply of products through regular communication in its many stores, and has even imposed provisions on scalping (anti-scalpers) to make it look more pro-consumer. Any store that is found to be selling PS5s at exorbitant prices will be blacklisted and unable to obtain inventory from the company.
