According to estimates made by analysts, the sales totaled by Xbox Series during the last quarter they may have been less than one million units: there are those who speak of 800,000 units sold, but as we know Microsoft does not provide official data.
The comparison with PS5 is inevitable, and considering that the Sony console sold 4.5 million units in the same period, we are talking about a ratio of 1 to 5: much higher than what we are used to seeing.
The idea we have had so far regarding the sales of the two platforms was in fact a ratio of 1 to 2 in favor of PlayStationand this further gap created during the last quarter, if confirmed, would represent a particularly bitter development for Microsoft.
Is there still the desire to try?
Considering that out of four generations of Xbox only one managed to prevail over PlayStation, although during the last phase of its life cycle it was nevertheless achieved and surpassed, it is reasonable to ask whether Microsoft still wants to try to compete with Sony with a new console.
According to the rumours, it seems that this is precisely the idea and the card to play consists inarrive on the market at least a year in advancebut on the other hand the sirens of a much more profitable multiplatform approach than the sole focus on Game Pass are starting to be heard.
Maybe during the Xbox Showcase in June we will find out what Xbox’s strategy will be for the future?
