Executive Director & Video Game Industry Analyst at Circana (NPD) Mat Psicatella has revealed over four percent of PlayStation 5 owners have a PlayStation Portal as of the end of 2024.

With an estimated 24.54 million PS5s sold through the end of 2024 in the US, according to VGChartz estimates, that would mean over 980,000 PlayStation Portals have been sold in the US.

The PlayStation Portal also generated the highest dollar sales for accessories in 2024 in the US.

“Ended up being a great holiday period for PlayStation Portal in the US,” said Piscatella. “It finished the year with an over 4% attach rate to PS5’s lifetime installed base and ranked 1st among accessories in 2024 dollar sales.

“Attach rate finished about a full percentage point higher than I’d expected. Good stuff.”

He added, “Remote play still impacts a very small portion of the overall audience, but it’s growing and is showing strong potential for the future. So we have that going for us, which is nice.”
