You have no idea what you're talking about, and as such it would be better for you to shut the fuck up or minimum to be respectful to the ones like me know about that topic and are trying to explain you the truth, which can be double checked in Sony's fiscal reports.
I never said that revenue and profit are the same. Regarding facts, here you have some and not the bullshit you made out in your fantasies:
Back in March 2024, PS5's generation revenue, in only the first 4 fiscal years (not 7 like the other ones) almost was already the top grossing generation for Sony in terms of revenue. So as
I said, by now this generation generated more revenue in total, not only launch aligned, than any previous PS generation:
In the same way, this generation back in March already generated $10B in profit in only 4 fiscal years, the same than in all the previous generations combined. Meaning, as I said by now the current generation generated more profit than all the previous generations combined.
As announced in CES, their active userbase achieved their (or for any console brand ever) all time record of 123M MAU last December (the peak activity month of each year due to Christmas). So yes, as I said they are in their all time high.
They have record hardware revenue, software revenue, game subs revenue, accesories revenue and for first party games off-PS revenue, user spent etc. And most of these metrics are in a multi year growth pattern. As it is the case of let's say 1st party off-PS revenue (a.k.a. 'other software'), which generated over $700M last fiscal year.
As part of the normal sales curve of every single console in gaming history, after passing the peak year for hardware sales (which for PS5 was the previous one, as announced by Sony), the hardware reached the hardware FY sales will continue declining past the peak as happened in all the consoles. This is the exception that explains why hardware won't grow in the current FY or the next ones.
Regarding software, there's in all consoles a transition since several years ago from physical to digital and from spending on buying games to spending on addon-content (DLCs/IAPs/passes/etc).
So the decline in these things is normal. But in general (software revenue, accesories revenue, game subs revenue, off-PS, active userbase, money spent per user, etc) metrics keep growing.
Regarding their first party games, they broke their all time fastest selling game record with TLOU2 (2020), God of War Ragnarok (2022), Spider-Man 2 (2023) and Helldivers 2 (2024). And for most of their studios, their most recent game was the best/fastest selling game of the studio/IP ever, or almost.
So they are not dying at all, you clown, the factual data says the opposite. Inform yourself better and go back to school to learn to behave like a decent human being.
