Microsoft doesn't usually share console sales data these days, aside from when talking in percentages during fiscal updates, but a new report using third-party info gives us a fresh estimate on the current sales of Xbox Series X|S.
Using data from Aldora Intelligence, compiled by The Wall Street Journal, Microsoft is reported to have shifted 28.3 million units of Xbox Series X and S. In comparison, PS5 has sold 61.7 million units - with that data seemingly provided by Sony itself.
These numbers appear in the WSJ video up above, which also looks at the bigger picture and how Microsoft is attempting to push forward with this console sales gap in mind. You've probably heard it all before, with the company's cloud gaming and Xbox Game Pass push, but yeah - it's an interesting clip nonetheless and provides us with a fresh estimate in terms of current-gen Xbox sales.
We must stress, though, that these are only third-party figures via Aldora Intelligence and are by no means the official numbers coming out of Microsoft. Given that the gap appears this wide, we probably won't get official numbers for a while, if ever. Last summer, thanks to a leaked ID@Xbox presentation, we heard that Microsoft had officially sold over 21 million Xbox Series X and S consoles by June 2023.
