Sony announced today that its PlayStation 4 console has sold over 70.6 million machines worldwide. This includes both the original PS4 and the 4K enhanced PlayStation 4 Pro.

At this time last year, lifetime sales were at 50 million. That means the PS4 sold over 20 million consoles in a year. It’s getting close to passing the total sales of its predecessor, the PlayStation 3, which topped out at about 84 million.
