PlayStation 4 has now sold through more than 35.9 million units globally as of January 3, 2016, Sony Computer Entertainment has announced.

The figure was boosted considerably by bumper holiday sales, which saw PS4 sell through more than 5.7 million units between November 22 and January 3. During the same window a total of more than 35 million PS4 games were sold across retail and digital stores.

Furthermore, 60 per cent more users subscribed to PS Plus at the end of 2015 (Nov 24-Dec 22) compared to the same holiday period in 2014.

“We are absolutely delighted that so many customers have selected PS4 as the best place to play throughout this holiday season and that the PS4 community is growing more than ever,” said Andrew House, president and Global CEO of Sony Computer Entertainment Inc.

“We remain steadfast in our commitment to deliver innovative entertainment experiences, and look forward to bringing an unprecedented games portfolio from third party developers and publishers and SCE Worldwide Studios, including Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End, Horizon Zero Dawn and The Last Guardian, this coming year.”
