Lisa Su, CEO of the company AMD, revealed that the company is "excited about how the launch of the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X | S went ”Last November. Both consoles, in fact, are powered and supported by AMD technology, and the company can only benefit from such a large launch, despite all the limitations due to the pandemic. Interviewed during the CES 2021, Su revealed that there has been greater demand for the new consoles of Sony e Microsoft products compared to what they had initially foreseen, and for this very reason they are trying to “make available as many units as possible to support the continuous demand“.
We are thrilled with how the launch of the consoles went. We have listened and discussed with Sony and Microsoft, especially regarding the scope of the market launch and the use of the products. From our point of view, if you think about it, despite the amount of new hardware that had to be installed - millions of units of both consoles, or rather all three consoles - and that had to be shipped, our work went a long way. well. As for what we have learned, the demand is greater than we thought, and we are trying to market as many components as we can. But we are very happy with this debut and the partnerships with Sony and Microsoft. They have somewhat different strategies, but we have collaborated very well with both. This is a big cycle, which speaks volumes about how much tech support we have been able to integrate into next-generation consoles.
PlayStation 5 was released in the US on November 12 and in the UK on November 19, while the Xbox Series X | S was launched worldwide on November 10. Both consoles they have already sold millions of units, and in the course of this early 2021 they will release an even greater number of consoles on the market, which bodes well for all those who have not yet managed to get hold of them.
