Another way of reading this is that people who spend more time on multiplayer games aren't interested in the PS5. PS4/PC is likely fine for them, no need to get one.

iirc there was info out there saying that those who bought and played call of duty, a chunk of them only played that (and virtually nothing else). its part of the reason why Sony didnt want the Activision buyout because its guaranteed console sales and ps+ sales down the drain, related to why Sont kept pushing for playstation exclusive COD content (to make it the definitive platform to play it on)
