In the home console battle, we find Microsoft Xbox in the left corner and Sony Playstation in the right corner. In the public, independently of the other two, we find the hybrid consoles Switch and Nintendo, which go up the road.
The rounds follow one another and Sony’s domination seems undisputed. However, there was a shortage of components and in February Sony announced that the PS5 was selling less than the PS4 due to a lack of stock.
Disrupts the free market
Finding the Xbox Series X or the PS5 is still not easy a year after its release. But faced with this shortcoming, the less powerful but also less expensive Xbox Series S appears as an alternative, or rather an attenuation, for many gamers. As a result, Xbox Series sales in February 2022 exceeded PS5 sales in the European market, according to the GSD Institute Barometer. The situation is therefore following the trend that began a few months ago in the United States.
Sold for €300, the 100% digital console allows you to play in 1440p at 60fps and above all to access the Xbox Game Pass. If the return of shares will allow Sony to regain its place, it is not yet clear whether Microsoft will benefit from this return.
