US PS5 Sales Drop Nearly 20% Year-Over-Year in Tough June 2026 for Gaming Industry

US PS5 sales fell nearly 20% year-over-year in June 2026, contributing to a broader 21% decline for the American games industry that month. The downturn was largely driven by a tough comparison with June 2025, when Nintendo's Switch 2 launched to record-breaking sales. Nintendo's console registered an expected 79% year-over-year drop as the post-launch buzz faded.
