The company hopes its current-generation gaming console will break PlayStation 4's quarterly record

Sony Interactive Entertainment hopes that the PlayStation 5 will break the sales record for the first three months of a calendar year, set by the PlayStation 4 in 2014.

Over the past three quarters of the current financial year [2022], Sony has shipped 12.8 million PlayStation 5 consoles to stores, meaning the company needs to ship another 5.2 million consoles by March 31, 2023, to meet its previously established annual target of 18 million PS5 consoles.

Sony is so confident in the PS5's success that it recently raised its annual target to 19 million consoles and now plans to ship 6.2 million PS5 units to stores.

The PlayStation 4 record was 3 million consoles shipped. The company set it between January and March 2014 [the fourth quarter of the 2013 financial year].
