Pretty sure that PC versions sell more than the Xbox version which is why they are considering that. Playstation is where it sells the most, then its PC and finally Xbox. If you put Nintendo in the equation, its likely less than Playstation and in front of PC. Anyways, as far as FFXVI dropping in sales, hopefully this bodes well for it to get discounted sooner than later. I'll get it when it drops down to $40 or less. |
Actually FF15 and FF13 sold more on Xbox than PC I believe. SteamSpy tracks both of them in the 1-2m range. Meanwhile VGC is tracking 2.2m for FF13 on 360, and they were tracking 1.14m for FFXV as of 2018 when they stopped tracking software sales. FFXV has had 5 more years to sell physical copies since VGC stopped tracking at 1.14m, and then there is Xbox digital to take into account. When FFXV released in 2016 about 30% of sales on Xbox were digital. By 2018 that number was more like 40%, and thanks to Covid and Series S, Xbox is now about 60-65% digital for software sales. That means that for most of it's lifespan, FFXV will have been selling quite alot of digital copies on Xbox. So, 1.14m physical as of 2018, plus probably another 200k or more physical since then, plus an average of probably 40-45% of FFXV lifetime Xbox sales being digital, means we're almost certainly over 2m for FFXV on Xbox now, while Steam is still below 2m.
