The official information from Sony is the fact that the company is doubling the production of PS5 consoles, up to 10 million units will be manufactured in 2020.
Sony Corp has reportedly asked their manufacturing plants and associates to “radically” increase the orders for the next-gen console. Sony initially planned to produce 5-6 million units by the end of March 2021. However, Sony is facing another obstacle, the main problem now is that a large number of PS5 are manufactured in China. Insiders anticipate shipping constraints to affect the units being actually available by the holiday season.
Insiders told Bloomberg that Sony expects 5 million units being manufactured by the end of September, other 5 million between October and December.
