📉 Sony SLUMPED: exclusive sales are roughly half of the 2020 peak, internal studios moved 58.4M copies in Apr 2020, Mar 2021, fell to 28.9M in FY2024 and nudged to 32.1M in the year ending 2026.
Why: PS5 scarcity and pandemic demand at launch, much pricier and longer blockbuster dev cycles, plus a strategy of porting big single‑player PlayStation titles to PC, all together mean fewer first‑party exclusives landing on consoles.
