PlayStation Hardware Sales Drop, Software Sales Soar

PS4 hardware sales dropped year-on-year in Q3 2017, but software sales more than made up for the decline.

Announced in Sony's latest earnings report, the games division as a whole earned ¥718 billion ($6.5 billion USD), a 16.2% rise. That led to ¥85.4 billion ($778m) in profit - a 50% increase on last year.

Software made up ¥300.4 billion ($2.7 billion) of that number, making a 71% rise on last year. Hardware sales dropped from 9.7 million to 9 million, resulting in ¥270.6 billion ($2.5 billion) in revenue.

Sony as a whole has had a good quarter, earning ¥2.7 trillion ($25.5 billion) revenue - an 11.5% increase - but turning that into an enormous 1407% rise in net profit year-on-year.

Kaz Hirai Stepping Down as Sony CEO

Kaz Hirai will step down as Sony CEO after a successful six-year reign. The move was proposed by Hirai himself, who will take on a new role as Chairman. It follows the departure of PlayStation CEO Andrew House last October.

The PlayStation business has been credited with revitalising Sony's business, with huge hardware sales driving increasing profits for the company as a whole.
