The famous console war era has lost its suspense, and Sony PlayStation has taken the lead in many aspects of this generation, which is not surprising.However, over the years, the two giants have had such a huge gap in hardware sales, which is really beyond everyone's expectations.

A new report shows that Xbox sold only about 2 million units worldwide last year, in sharp contrast to the outstanding performance of the PlayStation 5 in 2024.

This situation on Xbox is really worrying, but it also explains why the brand is turning to a multi-platform and software-centric strategy.

Take-Two’s latest quarterly earnings report shows that as of November 2024, the global current generation console sales reached 94 million units.This is a significant increase compared to Take-Two's sales of 77 million units in 2023 announced last year.

Of the 94 million units sold, it is said that only about 29 million units were sold.Analysis of last year's report shows that Xbox has previously sold about 27 million units, meaning only a 2 million units increase.

As of the end of September 2024, the official sales of PS5 increased to 65.5 million units, and this number may be even higher by the end of 2024.Sony may have sold 66 million units or more in November, so the number of Xbox Series S|X is even smaller in the 94 million sales counted by Take-Two.

Overall, Sony sold 65.5 million or more of the 94 million units sold, which means Microsoft's Xbox Series S|X sales will not exceed 28.5 million units.Even if the data is rounded and other additional sales for the whole year of 2024, this number is likely to be the highest of 29 million units.

Based on these estimates, Xbox Series X|S sales increased by 2 million units in 2024.Another report earlier this year pointed out that Microsoft's annual console sales hit a record low in 2024.

Microsoft's gaming brand no longer officially announces its console sales, but these estimates show that the Xbox Series X|S can barely sell millions at best.
