I mean that could also be a possibility but my point of waiting for more data like digital or a month worth of sales still holds because physical only week one sales dont tell an accurate picture of the console split.

It tells us a very big thing. Preorders are afected by gamers waiting for games to drop in gamepass. That also shows the interest gamers have for certain games. Cuz most of these games with big gaaps where games rumored to be on gamepass.

The only digerence here is that village is the sort of game that sells well on Xbox. So it closing the gap makes sense. But scarlet nexus sure as he'll isn't. There is no dount in my mind that this game at the end of the month wont close that gap. This is also like yakuza. Where it not free xbox gamers would just ignore it. 

People waiting for games to drop on gamepass is just a guess, we dont know if the gap was due to Xbox players buying the game after its launch or digital sales not being accounted.

As for Scarlet Nexus it looks pretty promising compared to Resident Evil 8, RE:8 had a 17% split for Xbox in it's week one physical sales while SN is at 20% for Xbox and the latter is a more traditional Japanese game. It looks like Xbox having the demo first helped the game have a higher percent of the console split at launch compared to RE:8 where Playstation had the demo first. I think the split with digital will be around the same if not slighly higher for Xbox as RE:8 but we will just have to wait for more info to come out in a few weeks.
