SOMETHING DIFERENT
It started as a broken partnership with Nintendo that ended up turning Sony Interactive Entertainment into one of the most important giants in the video game industry.
It was later when Ken Kutaragi, a computer engineer at the company and a great video game fan, presented the first idea to create a console that would incorporate the CD-ROM format. Although the idea was initially rejected, it eventually managed to move forward.

THE First console The project progressed until it led to the creation, in 1993, of Sony Computer Entertainment, the branch of the company that would be exclusively dedicated to the development of consoles and video games. And this finally led to the release of the PS One, the first PlayStation in history, on December 3, 1994.

Its launch was a resounding success against all odds, selling more than 100,000 units on its first day in Japan (it was first released exclusively in this country). In total, approximately 105 million units have been sold worldwide.

THE BIGgest evolution

Six years later, on March 4, 2000, the PlayStation 2 arrived, revolutionizing the market and shattering all the numbers of its predecessor, selling over 160 million units worldwide and thus becoming the best-selling console in history, a record it still holds to this day.

his console represented a major innovation in video game development, expanding its catalog to more than 2,700 titles, featuring highlights such as God of War, Resident Evil, Grand Theft Auto, and Kingdom Hearts.

A new Type of Console After the PS2, Sony entered the handheld console market by releasing the PSP (PlayStation Portable), which aimed to compete with the Nintendo DS. However, sales only reached 80 million, a very low figure considering the 150 million units sold by its Nintendo competitor.

In 2006 (again six years later), the PlayStation 3 saw the light of day. On this occasion, it was not very well received by the public since it barely exceeded 87 million units sold. The lack of games during its launch and the absence of a strong innovative factor were some of the causes that influenced this debacle. Despite this, the PS3 saw the birth of such renowned titles as Assassin's Creed, The Last Of Us, Uncharted, Red Dead Redemption, or Destiny.

Generation
Things improved starting in 2013 with the arrival of the PlayStation 4, which once again brought a twist to the industry thanks to digitalization, with key factors such as the online gaming platform and online multiplayer mode, thus consolidating itself as the leading console of its generation.

Finally, there is the PlayStation 5, which is the most current console at the moment. Launched in November of last year, it stands out for its powerful performance (capable of transmitting up to 5.5 GB of data per second), its 8 processor cores, and its storage capacity of an 825 GB SSD. Regarding video games, it is backward compatible with the PS4, so almost all games from that generation can be played on it.
