PlayStation 5 players outnumber PlayStation 4 users for the first time since the current console launched. Sony announced during its yearly investor meeting that PS5 monthly active users passed PS4 numbers as of March 31, 2025. The company reached 124 million total monthly active players across both systems. More gamers finally switched from older hardware to current generation devices. Last year Sony reported an even split between PS5 and PS4 players.
PlayStation president Hideaki Nishino said the platform performs better than ever before. Players spend more time gaming and purchase more content than previous generations. The PS5 gives people the best way to experience games and services. Sony still supports PS4 owners and considers them important customers. The company plans to keep serving both console generations moving forward.
