Not sure what I voted for last time.
I'm going with 60-70mil.

It will sell more than OG (new), and One (what were they thinking?) but less than 360 (great, popular device!) because more people will transition to playing via computer (me) or phone due to Xcloud and/or Gamepass, but it will have more active players across all platforms than the 360 era and be more profitable. That's my prediction, at least. Hardware numbers are becoming increasingly obsolete when it comes to MS's profitability, unlike Sony and Nintendo who need them still.

50-60mil like the XB1. Unless the core gaming sector grows, or perhaps the Bethesda purchase leads to more dual owners, everything points to PS5 dominating XB like the PS4 did, if not more.

If Microsoft stick to the generational model and don't just make everything an Xbox Series _ from now on, I expect between 60 and 70 million.

Better than Xbox One due to better marketing/PR and more first party studios, but lower than 360 due to tougher competition and the low likelihood it will get a second wind (Kinect) and 8 years before replacement like 360 did.
