The PS4 vs X1 Sales War

There are two popular consoles battling it out right now; the Playstation 4 and the Xbox One. The consoles weren’t released on the same, day, and the Xbox had a head start in terms of sales, but so far we’re finding that the PS4 is actually winning.

Both consoles were sold out during the first stage, but the Playstation 4 then had 2.1 million consoles sold out as soon as soon as they came back in stock. That certainly wasn’t the case for Xbox and it’s a sign that the Playstation 4 is taking over ever so slightly.

When the Xbox 360 and the Playstation 3 were being released, the Xbox had a better start, and it was significantly cheaper, yet its next generation brother is pricier than the PS4, and this could have impacted an individual’s decision on sales.

It’s certainly a case of ‘watching this space’ because we know how quickly things can change in the gaming world, but so far the early signs show that the Playstation 4 is dominating, especially in terms of sales.
