It's fair to say that for the first year of it's official release the PlayStation 5 broke the internet. For over a year after its highly-anticipated launch in the UK the Sony console was notoriously difficult to get hold of.
Released in two editions, the PS5 Disc and the PS5 Digital, the PlayStation 5 was and still is Sony's highest-grossing gaming console in history. It has sold more than 10 million times worldwide and was officially launched in the UK on November 19, 2020, selling out instantly.
Demand was so high because of a chip shortage during the production of the consoles, and Sony struggled to keep up. Nowadays demand has dropped slightly due to the consoles becoming more available but the price still remain relatively high for it, so it is likely to feature in the Black Friday sales?
