You cant compare the XB1 to Sony this generation. PS4 is the market leader and was selling like hotcakes regardless of which consoles. The announcement of Xbox one X has been hurting XB1 sales since 2016, hence why XB1 did worst in 2016 compare to 2015, 2016 the system should of been selling at a lower price point. Xbox in 2017 sold roughly 8.5 million in a year of uncertainty and waiting for Xbox one X. I think it's safe to say that XB1 should reach 10m sales this year. I expect Q1 2018 to be massive for XB1 with the sales boost from PUBG and the release of Sea of Thieves in March. We will know soon enough when we see January numbers: XB1 highest January - 335k Xb1 Jan 9th 2016 - 75k |
2017 was down YOY according to NPD and since US is by far XBO strongest market there really isnt any reason to believe its up in the rest of the world.
This site most likely has 2017 sales overtracked.
