The results of November’s console sales are in and it was a close fight. Both Microsoft and Sony had insane deals for customers over Black Friday, with a variety of older and newer models available.
With the launch of the PS4 Pro, total PS4 sales across all models reached 1.1 million for the month of November, slightly down year-over-year but still indicative of an extremely healthy brand. In addition, PSVR sold around 68,000 units over November. Xbox had 1 million units sell throughout November, competing impressively despite the launch of the PS4 Pro, though again down slightly year-over-year. These numbers were reported by Windows Central.
With both brands selling this well leading into the holidays, Microsoft and Sony should expect further fantastic results over December. There has been strong positive consumer reaction to the Xbox One S and PS4 Pro, so it will be interesting to see how Microsoft’s eagerly awaited high-end Project Scorpio will shift the console sales landscape. Regardless, its great to see the console market continue to thrive as new iterations are introduced to the ecosystem.
