Reported Highlights
* Sony reported that in Q2 of fiscal year 2025-26, the PlayStation 5 sold 3.90 million units, up by ~100,000 units compared to the same period last year.
* Cumulative PS5 units sold were cited at 84.20 million.
* It was reported that software (PS4 + PS5) sales in the quarter reached ~80.30 million units, a year-on-year increase of ~2.6 million units. (Of those, ~6.30 million units were first-party titles from Sony Interactive Entertainment.)
* The digital version of full games accounted for ~72% of overall software unit sales, up ~2 percentage points year-on-year.
* Monthly active users (MAU) on the PlayStation Network (PSN) were reported at ~119 million (i.e., 1.19 billion? In your mention, you had “1.19 亿人” which in Chinese would mean 119 million), an increase of ~3 million from the prior period.
* One standout title: Ghost of Yotei (the English title you referenced as “Sheep Foot Mountain of the Soul” reportedly sold ~3.30 million units as of November 2 (i.e., 32 days after launch).
✅ What this suggests
* Sony’s gaming division remains strong—hardware (PS5) continues to sell in millions per quarter, software sales are growing, and digital is taking an ever-higher share of overall sales.
* The fact that digital full game sales reached ~72% implies the business is shifting further toward download/online consumption rather than physical discs.
* A monthly active user base of around ~119 million indicates a sizeable engaged user community for PSN and related services, which bodes well for recurring-revenue elements like subscriptions, in-game purchases, etc.
* A recent first-party title achieving ~3.3 million units within its first month is a strong sign of Sony’s internal studio output being effective.
