Jim Ryan has spoken out about the problem, claiming that COVID and the semiconductor shortage make everything difficult.
It is one of the million questions in recent months. It has become practically a miracle to get a next generation console, be it PS5 or Xbox Series X. Every time there is a new batch, they disappear in seconds. There are many questions about why this is happening, and although the COVID-19 is one of the most coherent answers, there are other aspects that slow down the production of cutting-edge technological products.
On the subject he has spoken Jim Ryan, CEO of PlayStation, in a interview granted to GQ, who has reviewed the news of the company, at the same time that he has taken a look at the future of PS5 with the news that will come to the next generation Sony console. The aforementioned media has asked him the question about the reasons for the poor PS5 production, delving into whether there are more problems in this regard than those derived by the pandemic. And this is what the manager said:
Jim Ryan assures that normality with the stock of PS5 will arrive progressively“Obviously, in a pandemic, supply chains get a little more complicated than normal. A very visible example is the difficulties in the semiconductor market. You know, be it cars, smartphones, PCs, or game consoles, the problems in all those areas are widely documented. We had to move to a totally online distribution model and that is something we have never had to do before. And finally, the high level of demand for the PlayStation 5. You know, all that stuff kinda combined, “says Ryan.
The head of the PlayStation division also assures that they began to work with more strength and energy after Christmas to increase the supply. “It will increase as each month passes and the situation will improve quite quickly. We’ve been flawless in trying to increase production, and I can’t say more than that, “concludes Ryan.
