Show me Microsoft bought software on pc? Show me the numbers? Not numbers of how many players. Actually sales?
I’ll wait……..
I'm not sure if some of you are actually trying to be serious with this 'Xbox vs PS PC sales' discussion but i'm pretty sure Xbox is WELL ahaead. Sea of Thieves alone hit 5mil Steam sales in Dec, which is probably as much as Days Gone and HZD combined. In fact judging from the amount of user reviews, its probably sold as much as all 3 Sony games.
Unfortunately we dont get official sales numbers on Steam unless the actual devs come out and report them, but we do have the number of reviews metric which has always been a great way to judge a games success on Steam.
Here are the reviews for Xbox and PS games so far -
XBOX
Forza Horizon 5 - 65,429 reviews
Forza Horizon 4 - 121,507
Halo Infinite - 132,293
Age of Empires IV - 30,600
Psychonauts 2 - 6,593
Age of Empires III: Definitive Edition - 24,642
Grounded - 32,073
Sea of Thieves - 203,720
Gears Tactics - 5,375
Microsoft Flight Simulator - 34,756
State of Decay 2 - 31,211
Ori and the Blind Forest - 47,828
Ori and the Will of the Wisps - 83,546
Halo: The Master Chief Collection - 183,963
Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition - 96,751
Gears 5 - 18,625
Age of Empires: Definitive Edition - 8,976
There are a ton of older games as well, but these are like the main Xbox Studios games to come to Steam the last few years.
Now Playstation -
God of War - 41,679
Days Gone - 31,806
Horizon Zero Dawn - 71,396
So er yeah, i thinks its pretty safe to assume Xbox has done leagues better than PS on PC so far, as they should of done as they have released way more games over a lot more years.
You know its alright for Playstation to be behind is some metrics, there is snothing wrong with it.
