Week by week, we learn new details about the total number of console sales. And while in Microsoft’s case they don’t provide numbers on consoles sold, some companies through retailers give an estimated number. This is the case of VGChartzwhich affirms that in total The Xbox Series X | S would have already sold just over 20 million consoles.
An impressive fact, but even more so if we compare it to the Xbox 360, Redmond’s most successful console so far, even if it seems that it could lose this throne in a few years.
Xbox Series X|S twenty million less than Xbox 360
And it is that according to the comparisons, the Xbox Series X | S reached the figure of 20 million consoles sold in just over 24 months since release. A record number, since The Xbox 360 reached the same figure ten months later. Almost three years after its launch. Without a doubt, a great indication of the quality of Microsoft’s strategy with the Xbox Series family, where it offers two unique consoles designed for different audiences. And above all, the success of creating a console like the Xbox Series S, which is the subject of a real bombshell week after week.

To this must be added Xbox Game Pass, which promotes the strategy of those in Redmond, and the future of big games, with Starfield and Forza Motorsport on the horizon. Without a doubt, these are good times for the company, but they must serve to continue strengthening the strategy and 2023 is the ideal scenario to continue.

My vocation has always been archaeology, but by chance I ended up falling in love with Egyptology. But I am above all a parakeet and a gamer. Also, I am a lover of good stories. If you don’t see me studying, I’ll be with a controller and a console adventure.
