According to Analysis\u2019 Piers Harding-Rolls, the PS5<\/strong> is leading sales in the current-generation hardware war quite comfortably with 30 million, with Microsoft having reportedly moved around 18.5 million Xbox Series X\/S consoles.<\/p>\n

However, while Sony\u2019s hardware has the sales advantage, it\u2019s not all doom and gloom for Microsoft. Harding-Rolls notes that Xbox consoles managed to increase its share of units ales over the past year due to the Xbox Series S becoming more widely available following major stock shortages.<\/p>\n

Despite this, he predicts that the PS5 and Xbox Series X\/S sales gap will widen due to Sony\u2019s console seemingly now over any stock issues, while Microsoft has yet to confirm an end to Xbox Series X shortages.<\/p>\n

Availability of PlayStation 5 improved towards the end of the year, especially in the US, and global stock has been much more regularly available in 2023. Ampere expects the gap between PlayStation and Xbox unit sales to widen in the first half of 2023, with Xbox Series X only becoming more consistently available in the second half of the year.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Sony announced during its latest financial call that the PS5 has shipped 32 million units worldwide following its launch in November 2020.<\/p>\n

Microsoft traditionally does not reveal sales figures for its Xbox consoles, so there\u2019s no official number regarding how well Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S have performed. In fact, it hasn\u2019t said anything about sales since the Xbox One days nearly a decade ago.<\/p>\n
