PS5 sales shot up by 200% across Europe last month from subpar figures last January. This massive spike placed it into the number one slot as the most popular console in terms of sales, beating out the Nintendo Switch and Xbox Series X.

First reported by Gamesindustry.biz, this has happened thanks to an increased amount of stock available. While just 12 months ago people were fighting over the product, it’s now not nearly as difficult to acquire a PS5, allowing for any would-be buyers to take the plunge at last.

In terms of PS5 accessories, 1.76 million were sold across Europe (without taking into account Germany or the UK), with the PS5 DualSense controller taking the lion’s share of responsibility for the figure. That being said, accessory sales were still at a 2.1% decrease from last January even with that astonishing figure, with sales of subscription cards also dropping 4%.
