Some thought CoD to Game Pass would boost Xbox sales. Now, the numbers are in, and we finally have our answer
Call of Duty’s massive move to becoming a day one launch title on Game Pass definitely impacted console sales this year, but maybe not in the way you think.
According to Circana Retail Tracking Service’s Mat Piscatella, overall hardware spending at $927 million was “flat” compared to November 2023. But the interesting numbers are that the PS5 saw a 15 percent increase in console sales, while Xbox dropped a whopping 29 percent compared to last year at the same time.
