PS4 Sold Twice As Well As Xbox One, Microsoft Reveals
New court docs out of Brazil reveal that the PS4 was far more successful than the Xbox One

“Sony has surpassed Microsoft in terms of console sales and installed base, having sold more than twice as many Xbox [consoles] in the last generation,” confirmed Microsoft in the court docs uploaded earlier this month.
Doing some napkin math, Sony last reported that the lifetime sales of the PS4 were at just over 117 million. So the Xbox One sold less than 58 million. The actual number of Xbox One consoles sold is probably closer to 55 million, based on past research from analysts. Here are some comparable numbers. The Xbox 360’s total global sales ended at 84 million in 2014. The WiiU shipped about 13 million consoles by December 2019. So the Xbox One falls comfortably between those two past machines."
