Norion said: You're not taking into account that the Xbox One had a strong first half of the year in 2020 due to the pandemic but then fell off and didn't sell much during the holidays due to stock running out for it. The Xbox Series will easily catch up during the 2nd half of the year and won't have any trouble 4m or even 5m and should reach about 33m by the end of the year so it reaching 40m still isn't in any doubt yet. Unless the successor releases in 2026 45m isn't in any doubt yet either. |
It will catch up to an even point at best. It's considerably down from last year, and last year it made 7.5M thanks to decent holiday boost. With the speed it's going now it will be at 2.5M by september and even with some boost from the holiday period, it can go up to 4M but I can't see it much past that. It is doing barely past 200k monthly. It's holiday boost will take a hit too. 4M is the best it can reach. 6M or even 5M is like a dream with half the year barely passing 1.5M. Like @curl-6 said it's almost flatlined. See my comparison for it with the XB1'20 year, and the chart too. Instead of going up, it's almost flat in the last 2 months, and there is no reason that will change anytime soon.
