only777 said: Xbox sales are slowing down, Game Pass is not bringing in new users to the Xbox Console eco system, Starfield actually saw two thirds of its sales from PC users. So what's actually happening here? Xbox players are migrating to either PC or leaving the system altogether and going to PlayStation. |
There is nothing to support this. Currently, the front page shows that PS5 has outsold the XS by about 44 million to 24 million. Using VGChartz data for sales thru 2016 as a comparable sample for last gen, the ratio was very similar, 53.49 million for PS4 and 27.92 million for X1. If anything, Xbox sales share has actually increased from 52.2% to 54.4% of PlayStation levels in 2016 and currently respectively.
If Starfield sold more on PC, that isn't a sign that Xbox is declining. It's proof that the PC market is growing faster than console gaming, something that people have been noticing since the early 2010's.
Love and tolerate.
