The Xbox Series

According to what was published in the magazine VGChartz Today, sales of the Xbox Series are a good number, but compared to the sales of the previous generation, sales of the Xbox One in the same period totaled 32.2 million units.

There's a big difference in sales between the two platforms, but what about the competing platform, the PlayStation 5? Sony recently revealed that sales of the device have reached 59 million units, which is comparable to the sales of the Xbox Series

Microsoft doesn't reveal sales figures for its Home devices, and those statistics come to us from third-party companies, but they can be largely reliable.

Recently, rumors have surfaced that Microsoft may abandon the Xbox as its primary platform and instead produce it primarily as a system that third-party companies can build and produce their own home consoles based on the same operating system.

In return, Microsoft will expand its work in producing major games and publishing them as a third-party company on other home platforms. It will also focus on its Game Pass service as its main platform, so that it can continue to release major titles from its studios from day one, thus expanding its fan base.

Microsoft's moves come as Sony tries to expand the reach of its original studios by publishing them on the PC platform. The company previously confirmed that live service games from PlayStation Studios will launch on PC alongside PlayStation platforms from day one. But that won't apply to big, single-player story games, which will only be available on PlayStation platforms.
