It's not just PS4. The important metric is PS+ subscribers.

? it's say's just PS4 at the top. I think monthly users is important too just because they still make money every time someone buys a game.

It doesn't because that's not how MAUs are calculated. Anyone that interacts with PS services count as a MAU. That includes Video, Vue, Music, Direct, PS+, Store, PS Now on all devices be it Vita, mobiles, TV, PC, PS3 or PS4. I can login to PS Now on PC and log out again, I'll be counted as MAU.

That's silly why not break it down further?

Because MAU is a metric for PSN Service/ecosystem which doesn't really have generations. They did give the PS+ subscribers though.

This says something about online playing and offline playing. Since there are 103 monthly users who play PS4 and only 38 million are PS subscriber. So, it could possibly mean that more people enjoy playing offline than online. This just gives a hint that offline is more popular than online playing. We really need better info about this subject.

Gave up PS plus sub along time ago. Exclusive machine only. PC and gamepass for 3 years glitch for the Xbox one X is the way I play. Next gen will be the first gen I skip consoles since the NES.

Congrats on the PS4 numbers. PSVR numbers remain mediocre, at best.

Also looks like PS2 will easily remain king in both HW and SW units sold

Amazing job by Sony this gen. They built up a ton of momentum towards the end of PS3's lifecycle and carried it over into the next gen successfully and kept firing on all cylinders.

The numbers at the end of this year should be even better with games like TLOU2, FFVII Remake, Ghosts of Tsushima and Nioh 2 coming this year.
