Sony has raised its full-year forecast for its games segment after higher net sales and operating income in the second quarter.<\/p>\n
The platform holder attributed the results to higher sales from network services and first-party software, including Marvel’s Wolverine, which surpassed 2.4 million units.<\/p>\n
Hardware revenue declined due to lower PlayStation 5 unit sales. However, the console sold 2.6 million additional units in the second quarter, bringing lifetime sales to 93.7 million.<\/p>\n
