Xbox Content & Services revenue declined 11% in the 2nd quarter of 2020.
Gaming revenue dipped 21% this quarter.
This implies overall gaming sales hit just over $3.34 billion in the holiday Q2.

Assuming gaming revenue of a bit over $3.34 billion for Q2 (based on the 21% decline), its past 12 month total is $10.3 billion.
How does this compare to this time last year?
That's down more than a billion dollars.

Until its filing, it doesn't provide much color.
Xbox Content & Services is off double-digits vs a "high prior year comparable, primarily from a third-party title."
Which is Fortnite.
However it did see subscriptions growth. Xbox Game Pass is attracting players. pic.twitter.com/oqzw6enQPL

It's now published its 10Q.
Formally its gaming revenue in Q2 of 2020 is $3.33 billion.
Contributing to the gaming sales decline for the quarter of $905 million vs last year was a 43% dip in hardware sales.
Declines in both volume & prices.https://t.co/2we4ybHuAF pic.twitter.com/YOFgk0gUxE

Note it reports sales & growth for Xbox. Nothing on profitability. Hard to know the whole picture. All I can use is what we have.
Overall, its revenue totaled almost $37B which is up 14%.
Operating income jumped 35% to $13.9B.
Results beat analyst estimates in Q2. pic.twitter.com/fT6hAxfiDS
