The console giants, who are trying to gain superiority over each other in every field, continue to compete and escalate things in terms of both content and sales. While sales around the world are constantly updated, the dominance in regional sales has begun to change hands at some points.
Xbox sales surpass PlayStation
Xbox, which could not reach the sales figures it wanted in the Asian region, seems to have finally broken this bad fate. The fact that the competitors in front of it were of Asian origin kept Xbox away from this region constantly. But with the increasing sales in the recent period, they are making progress for dominance in the region.
Although there are a wide variety of factors in the change of ownership of this dominance, the most striking ones are the fact that their competitors are experiencing supply problems at some points and, of course, the Game Pass factor. Game Pass is both very convenient and has a lot of current games is one of the reasons why most users prefer Xbox Series.
After Microsoft acquired Activision Blizzard in recent months, the console wars have reached a completely different dimension. Because even the rumor that Blizzard would switch to Game Pass after this purchase and that the Call of Duty series could no longer be played on PlayStations caused Blizzard fans to change sides in an instant.
According to the sales data shared by Famitsu, the Xbox Series S surpassed the PS5 in Japan last week. Moreover, the difference is not a little ice, but almost tripled. The Xbox Series S sold 6,120 copies on its own, while the PS5 and PS5 digital versions sold 2,693 units. Although Xbox has been ahead in sales in certain periods, it has appeared with such a large sales difference for the first time in 8 years. We can say that the performance friendliness of Xbox Series consoles has caused a serious difference to its rival who has supply problems at some points.
