Part of me thinks this might be because the new consoles are both so hard to get, and a reasonable gaming PC has become so affordable. You don't need the newest hardware, especially as the latest GPUs are also nearly impossible to get a hold of. But even a mid-range rig these days can outperform consoles, without breaking the bank.

Also, the effects of Covid meant people needed their own PCs regardless of use case, for remotely working.
