Sony Interactive Entertainment‘s PlayStation and Microsoft’s Xbox have been rivals on home consoles for many years. However, in recent years, the Xbox Game Pass subscription system has become popular, which can be said to make Sony feel threatened. Phil Spencer, the head of Xbox, was interviewed by the New York Times Podcast yesterday, and he said that the current next-generation console, the Xbox Series X/S, is already selling faster than any previous Xbox game console.
Under the epidemic, the upstream and downstream supply chains of the global electronics industry have been impacted. The two major forces that have launched new machines in the past two years, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S, are also one of the victims. The sales figures of game consoles are quite satisfactory.
Xbox head Phil Spencer was interviewed by The New York Times Podcast yesterday to discuss with the host how the game industry is looking into the metaverse through virtual characters, virtual worlds and the online economy. But in this interview, Phil Spencer also mentioned a topic of considerable interest to home game players, that is, he revealed that the current next-generation console Xbox Series X/S has sold more than any previous Xbox game console.
From the perspective of Phil Spencer, he believes that it is difficult for players to buy the stock of PS5 or Xbox game consoles in the market. It is not that the supply is less than ever, “the supply is actually as much as ever.”
“For that matter, we’ve sold more contemporary Xboxes — the Xbox Series X and S — than any previous version of the Xbox we’ve ever had. So our job is to get supply to meet demand.”
