Sony has introduced a lottery system in Japan to manage sales of the PlayStation 5 Pro, as demand continues to outstrip limited supply. Customers will now enter draws for the chance to buy the console rather than purchasing it directly. The move highlights ongoing production constraints and strong demand for the upgraded console in one of its home markets.
Why now: The PS5 Pro shortage in Japan is prompting unusual purchasing measures, drawing attention from gamers and tech watchers.
