Sony Official Game Count
SIEK (Sony Interactive Entertainment Korea) gives a number of software titles released as at 2013-12-31. This follows the last known official software title count that SCEI (Sony Computer Entertainment Inc.) published with a number of software titles as at 2013-06-30.
The count for PS1 software titles has not changed since at least the counts for as at 2010-12-31. The count for PS2 software titles is unchanged between SCEI's 2013-06-30 count and SIEK's 2013-12-31 count.
However, the counts for PS2 are unreliable as the previous count as at 2012-06-30 has different numbers as they updated the page throughout 2012 and 2013. The first time that the table was updated to as at 2012-06-30, the PS2 numbers had not changed from as at 2012-03-31. It wasn't until sometime between Sep 2012 and Jan 2013 that the counts had been updated to include 50 new Japan titles, 4 new NA titles and 5 new Europe titles. These counts would go on to be updated again by May with 4 new Japan titles and 3 new Europe titles despite still saying "as at 2012-06-30". Only two more PS2 titles would be added when the table was updated to say as at 2013-06-30.
Software Title Count by Console
Sony Korea's software title count for Disc-based consoles as at 2013-12-31:
| Japan | North America | Europe | Worldwide | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| PlayStation 1 (PSX) | 4,944 | 1,335 | 1,639 | 7,918 |
| PlayStation 2 (PS2) | 5,394 | 1,814 | 3,772 | 10,980 |
| PlayStation 3 (PS3) | 1,690 | 974 | 1,836 | 4,500 |
| PlayStation 4 (PS4) | 7 | 15 | 16 | 38 |
| PlayStation Portable (PSP) | 2,428 | 628 | 1,069 | 4,125 |
Note: "Japan" (NTSC-J) includes titles released in Asian regions including South Korea (NTSC-J). It is unknown whether "North America" (NTSC-U, DVD region 1) includes NTSC-U regions outside of USA and Canada such as Latin America (NTSC-U, DVD region 4), however it is considered likely.
Changes since 2013-06-30
The count for PS2 did not change between 2013-06-30 and 2013-12-31. It is therefore unknown whether these numbers have included the following games (but it is considered unlikely):
- SLUS-27003: FIFA 14 (Latin America)
- SLES-55671, SLES-55672: FIFA 14 (Europe)
- SLES-55673, SLES-55674, SLES-55675, SLES-55676: PES 2014 (Europe)
These games have EXE dates and release dates between 2013-06-30 and 2013-12-31. FIFA 14 on PS2 is sometimes referred to as "Legacy Edition", whereby it is mostly the same game as FIFA 13 but with updated information regarding teams, so there is a slim chance that Sony did not consider it a new title. Furthermore, FIFA 14 was not released on PS2 in Canada or USA so may or may not affect the North America count (FIFA 14 was released in Mexico, South America, Europe, and Australasia).
Changes since 2012-06-30
The count for PS2 is also unchanged for Japan and Europe regions between 2012-06-30 and 2013-06-30. The same issue as above is therefore also present for the following games:
- SLPM-55298: Final Fantasy XI: 5th Expansion (Japan)
- SCES-55663: Street Cricket Champions 2 (India-only, but may count as Europe due to PAL region)
- SLES-55664, SLES-55665: FIFA 13] (Europe)
- SLES-55666, SLES-55667, SLES-55668, SLES-55669: PES 2013 (Europe)
- SCES-55670: Don 2: The Game (India-only, but may count as Europe due to PAL region)
The increment of two titles for the North America region are likely the only two known titles released for NTSC-U between 2012-06-30 and 2013-06-30:
- SLUS-21954: FIFA Soccer 2013 (Latin America)
- SLUS-21955: PES 2013 (North America)
However, there is a chance that one of the two new titles is referring to SLUS-21951: Major League Baseball 2K12, which is the only known NTSC-U game released in the first half of 2012, which may have been counted instead of FIFA Soccer 2013 (Latin America).
