“We would like to thank our fans and partners for their ongoing support of PlayStation and for making PS4 the top-selling console and No. 1 in software sales in North America in August”.

However, Layden did add that the election isn’t the only incoming fan activity: a PlayStation trivia quiz and video unboxing of the 20-year-old system will also be shown in the coming weeks.
