PlayStation 5 had outsold Xbox Series X/S by around 2-to-1 as of the end of 2023, according to data shared by Grand Theft Auto publisher Take-Two.
In an investor presentation released on Thursday alongside its quarterly financial results, the company said 77 million current-gen consoles had been sold as of December 31, 2023.
Representing combined PS5 and Xbox Series X/S sales, the data was sourced from one of (or a combination of) research firms IDG Consulting and Newzoo, and the Entertainment Software Association.
Sony’s and Microsoft’s consoles launched in November 2020. While Microsoft hasn’t confirmed exact sales numbers for Xbox Series X/S, PS5 surpassed 50 million sales on December 9, 2023, according to Sony.
Assuming Sony’s console managed to sell at least another 1.34 million units during the remainder of December, and that the data Take-Two shared is accurate, PS5’s lifetime sales would be double those of Xbox Series X/S at the end of 2023.
A slide from Take-Two’s investor presentationDuring 2023 alone, PS5 sales outpaced Xbox Series X/S by almost 3-to-1, according to estimates published last month by research firm Ampere Analysis.
