Sony has confirmed that those looking for a PS5 console should have an easier time finding one at retailers.

　　In a new post on the official PlayStation Blog, Sony Interactive Entertainment's Isabelle Tomatis (Vice President, Brand, Hardware and Peripherals) confirms what PlayStation Boss Jim Ryan said earlier this month during Sony's CES 2023 press conference. During the conference, Ryan not only announced that Sony managed to sell more than 30 million PS5 units globally, but also that PS5 shortages were a thing of the past. As most of you will know, PS5s have been hard to get ahold of ever since launching in November 2020.

　　"PS5 supply has improved toward the end of last year, and I'm happy to share that December was the biggest month ever for PS5 console sales and that we have now sold more than 30 million units through to consumers worldwide", the PlayStation head said. "Everyone who wants a PS5 should have a much easier time finding one at retailers globally, starting from this point forward."

　　On the PlayStation blog, Tomatis has now also confirmed this "increased supply" of consoles.

　　"To all our fans: thank you for your patience as we navigated unprecedented demand for the PS5 console amid global challenges. If you’re looking to purchase a PS5 console, you should now have a much easier time finding one at retailers globally."

　　"For players in the U.S., U.K, France, Germany, Netherlands, Belgium, and Luxembourg, be sure to check direct.playstation.com to purchase a PS5 console, games, and accessories directly from PlayStation. PS5 products are also available at participating retailers globally."
