Recently, Bloomberg published an internal report on the production of Playstation consoles. In the report, insiders revealed that the factory that had planned to suspend PS4 production has now reopened the PS4 production supply chain.
In addition, they revealed that they plan to produce 1 million PS4 units in 2022. This round of restarts is planned to offset the PS5's global supply shortage, which requires higher-performance chips. In addition, by increasing the lower cost PS4 production orders, it will also help Sony to better negotiate and negotiate with manufacturing partners.
It is reported that Sony's chief financial officer Hiroki Totoki also confirmed the problem that PS5 sales in the first half of 2021 did not meet expectations at the previous financial conference.
