According to a statement from Microsoft, the Xbox One saw 81 percent growth compared to October 2014. Staying on message, it said "the strength of the greatest games lineup in Xbox history," including October's top-selling game Halo 5: Guardians, helped drive "record Xbox Live" usage for the month, as well as put the console above its competitors.

Sony:

“We are truly humbled by the success of the PlayStation 4 and look forward to celebrating with our fans at PlayStation Experience in December,” a Sony spokesperson said. “Thank you to our community for making PlayStation 4 the top selling console globally.”

Unfortunately we don't have the weekly breakdown for hardware this month (except week 1) but at least we have total sales for the whole month!

I'm going with an Xbox One win. Halo 5 performed decently so overall I think that the Xbox One has enough momentum to win the whole month.
