AMD Expects PS5 and Xbox Series Supply Issues Until the Second Half of 2021
With the launch of both the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S last year, supply has been in increasingly high demand for these next-gen consoles. Sony previously warned of supply issues being prominent, but pushed to meet those demands as much as possible. Now it looks like supplier AMD might also expect some supply issues for the consoles until the second half of 2021, at least, meaning it's unlikely they'll be properly stocked in retail stores until then.

According to Video Games Chronicle, supplier AMD, who makes the CPUs and GPUs for the PS5 and Xbox Series, expects there to be supply issues for the first half of 2021. AMD CEO Lisa Su stated that the company expects "some tightness" during the first six months of the year before things are able to pick up in the second half. "So certainly, when I look at the semiconductor environment in 2020 it was very strong. So, we saw a strong revenue ramp in our business as well as across some of our peers," Su said. "It’s fair to say that the overall demand exceeded our planning and as a result, we did have some supply constraints as we ended the year. Those were primarily, I would say, in the PC market, the low end of the PC market and in the gaming markets."
Su continued to assure, "I think we’re getting great support from our manufacturing partners. The industry does need to increase the overall capacity levels and so we do see some tightness through the first half of the year, but there is added capacity in the second half."
As the demand for the PS5 and Xbox Series X/S grows higher, it has seen rise to a number of scalper groups who continue to take advantage of the system by hiking resale prices up due to the high demand. It's made worse by the ongoing global pandemic which has considerably slowed manufacturers around the world. If you're planning to get your hands on the PS5 or Xbox Series X/S in the near future, keep in mind that supply might be tight until suppliers pick it up by the second half of 2021.
