Sony Interactive Entertainment continues to lose money on every $ 399.99 PlayStation 5 model it sells without a disk drive, but it is expected to reach a level in the near future where these losses will be fully offset by sales of accessories and games.

At the same time, even receiving a loss from the sales of the PlayStation 5 Digital Edition, the Sony gaming department is doing well and demonstrating record figures in revenue and profits, including due to high demand for PlayStation 4 games, digital content and services.… In addition, the PlayStation 5 Digital Edition now accounts for a smaller share of sales – the flagship model is more in demand among the audience.
