Xbox One Sells More Than 1 Million Units in 24 Hours Biggest Record
Microsoft released its 8th generation console, the Xbox One, on November 22 at midnight.
The Xbox One has quickly eclipsed the Xbox 360's figure of 330,000 units during its first month. Yes, that means the Xbox One has sold three times as much as the Xbox 360 did in more than four weeks. It didn't have the benefit of a worldwide launch, though.
The Xbox One has sold out at most retailers and Microsoft stated they will be trying to replenish stock as fast as possible. Forza Motorsport 5, Dead Rising 3 and Killer Instinct are some of the most popular games on the Xbox One and are three of 10 exclusive titles.
The PS4 similarly sold one million units in its first day, but this is just the beginning. Whether or not these consoles can deliver on their long-term promises will determine which can secure dominance in the market.
The Xbox One launched in 13 countries, Australia, Austria, Brazil, Canada, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Mexico, Spain, United Kingdom, United States and New Zealand.
