80% of single-player game sales are on PS5 over Xbox reveals combined data
New data indicates that single-player game sales on PlayStation 5 significantly outperform Xbox Series X/S, with 75%-80% of global launch sales occurring on Sony's console. This trend is attributed to higher PlayStation 5 unit sales and Xbox Game Pass potentially reducing individual game purchases. While Microsoft has disputed some figures, the console sales disparity suggests a substantial market advantage for PlayStation in the single-player space.
