Little by little, the Playstation 5 is meeting demand in the United States. A clear example of this is the recent report by The NPD Group, an organization that is responsible for sharing information on the sale of hardware and software in the United States, who have indicated that Sony’s console was positioned as the best-selling console in units during August 2022.
According to The NPD Group, the PlayStation 5 became the best-selling console in the United States during the past month of August. Mat Piscatella, a member of this organization, has pointed out that the PS5 was ranked first both in unit sales, as well as in money generation. This is the first time this has happened in several months.
US NPD HW – As was noted in July, both PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series again experienced double-digit percentage growth during the month when compared to a year ago.

Usually, the Switch is the one who dominates when it comes to hardware units sold, with the PS5 always excelling in money generation. Along with this, it has been mentioned that the Sony console and the Xbox Series X | S presented a double-digit increase compared to what was seen in the same period of 2021.
Although August was a pretty strong month for the PS5, and Sony’s console is the piece of hardware that has generated the most money in 2022 in the United States, the Switch is still way ahead when it comes to unit sales. It will be interesting to see how the second half of the year plays out.
On related topics, the PS5 becomes the UK’s best-selling console. Similarly, so were console sales in the first half of the year.
Editor’s note:
It is very good to see that PlayStation is doing everything possible to meet the demand for its console. This is the key to winning the market. If Sony manages to maintain a steady stream of hardware parts, we’re sure to see numbers that rival the Switch.
