How many PlayStation 2 consoles did Sony report selling worldwide?

Sony reported selling over 155 million PlayStation 2 consoles worldwide.

The PlayStation 2 launched in Japan in March 2000, followed by North America, Europe, and other regions. Its strong sales were driven by a large game library, DVD playback, and the popularity of the original PlayStation brand.

Sony’s figure is commonly rounded to 155 million or described as more than 155 million units. This makes the PlayStation 2 one of the most successful consoles ever made, alongside the Nintendo DS and the original PlayStation.

A common mix-up is confusing PS2 sales with the original PlayStation’s reported total of about 102.49 million units. The PS2 remained in production for many years after the PlayStation 3 launched, helping it reach its exceptionally high lifetime total.
