Sony Estimated to Have Sold Twice as Many PS5 Consoles as Xbox Series Globally

Recent industry data estimates that Sony has told twice as many PlayStation 5 consoles as Microsoft has sold Xbox Series X|S consoles worldwide.

This new data comes from research firm Ampere Analysis. According to a new console insight from the firm, Sony has reportedly sold through roughly 12.8 million PlayStation 5 units (disc and digital models combined) globally as of September, whereas Microsoft is said to have only sold through 6.7 million of its Xbox Series family (Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S combined).

Guess Jay couldn't have been more wrong when he said you could easily get a PS5 at launch since there would be no demand due to "Sony being so bad" or recently talking about how bad Sony is doing with the PS5 and "stumbling" the launch. Shocking.

Funny how you had to make this entire thread about me. I guess I always got a permanent residence in your head.

On an actually mature note this really just says how Sony is capable of producing more consoles faster, apparently at about twice the rate, because both have been sold out forever.

Pretty sure chip shortages have been having a big effect on this whole situation, I guess Sony just has a better supply line.

I have a ps5 i wish i could get xbox series x too. What is your point each console has sold the minute it hits retail shelves and online stores. The only thing you are implying is that sony was able to make more consoles.

Def Japan.

Numbers don't matter tho now. Forza and halo are out and the Xbox hype train is chugging full steam....esp since halo actually turned out to be good. Ain't no one thinking about Playstation unless they wanna sit on their couch alone while all their boys are playing halo and forza (for free).

But I guess another play thru of Returnal or ratchet and clank is fun

They're able to produce more so they sold more. Cool story OP. Zero indication of actual popularity.

Imagine being a grown man and placing another man on ignore... I can't imagine that level of frailty.

And then to constantly announce that you have that person on ignore.

That's some serious snowflake behavior.

You're like those chicks who comment "unfollowed" on a comedians Instagram page when they say something that offends them.

Xbox has always been very popular in America and far less popular worldwide. This isn't new though, I was always impressed coming to American forums like the misc and seeing the popularity of Xbox, while 90% of people where I live and friends from other Non-USA countries had Playstations.

You guys need to understand, because many of your local friends have an Xbox it will make you think that's how it is worldwide but it's quite the opposite.

The ps5 is definitely harder to purchase than the series X right now. The few Xbox friends where I live were already able to buy theirs while the ps5 homeaus like myself are still struggling to get our ps5. It's annoying, I have one close friend who got a series X for himself and an S for his kid months ago with no issue.

I haven't seen either available both always sold out. Leaning more towards xbx though.
The Bethesda move was slick.

This is correct. Xbox put I want to say 30-40% of their inventory into server blades for their streaming service.

Call me crazy but I think this has largely to do with Microsoft's decision to make all Xbox games compatible with PC. The ultimate combo for anyone wanting all games this gen is PC + PS5 + Switch.

Yeah this is why the Microsoft console is a ???. You need massive AAA exclusives to sell a console, otherwise Playstation will eat your angus for dinner. I have so many friends right now fighting to get a ps5 because we're excited for the exclusives. The cool MS exclusives we can just get on PC which we already have.
