2022 - 8.64m
2023 - 7.47m (-14% YoY)
2024 - 4.79m (-36% YoY)
2025 - ~2.5m (-48% YoY)

Xbox Series is currently on a very clear trend of collapsing sales. I'm not saying 1.5m is impossible, but that would need a smaller 40% drop YoY and to reverse its current trend of the drop accelerating. While you say 1.5m at least, I'd more say 1.5m at absolute most.

MS has completely given up on the Xbox Series.

Gosh, 2024 to present is depressing for Xbox hardware, as I figured. The statements and actions from Phil Spencer and the others for the past few years lines up with collapsing sales. More and more games on PlayStation. Pretty sure Xbox (OG) sold more in 2005 than Xbox Series did in 2025. Though I don't know if Xbox (OG) sold more in 2006 than Xbox Series as 360 was already off to a good start. 

Original Xbox shipped 4.1m units in 2005, so yeah in the year it was replaced it did way better than the Series last year.

They stopped manufacturing the Original Xbox in August 2005.
