PS4 celebrates six months on top in the UK

PlayStation 4 has been the best-selling games console every month of the year to-date, Sony has told MCV.

The company was speaking about the success in June of its limited edition console bundle, which features Warner Bros’ chart-topping title Batman Arkham Knight.

Arkham Knight is the fastest-selling game of 2015 so far, surpassing the previous sales record held by The Witcher 3.

The pack, which includes a grey PS4 emblazoned with the Dark Knight’s silhouette, was available alongside a separate SKU comprising of a standard PS4 and a copy of the title.

We are delighted with the success of both Batman Arkham Knight, with its exclusive PlayStation 4 content, and the limited edition Batman PS4 bundle,” a PlayStation spokesperson told MCV.

It contributed significantly to PlayStation 4 leading next-gen sales for the month of June – continuing our successful streak winning every month this year so far.”
