Less than half last year sales for Xbox. Unbelievable. They released nothing last year.

That it's declining this much so early is an absolutely shocking result. How they expect to keep selling this hardware for another 5 years is beyond me. It's starting to crash and burn at less than 3 years old.

To be fair Xbox Series sales were inflated in Europe last year due to PS5 stock issues but it is still rough yeah. The YoY comparisons should be better next year at least.

And despite the apparent inflation Xbox Series 2022 in Europe was worse than Xbox One 2015 in Europe. That's what makes these YoY comparisons all the more damning. 2022 wasn't an especially strong performance, it was just fine by Xbox standards. Which makes 2023 awful
