1Xbox Series Consoles Are Currently Outselling PlayStation 5 In Japan.
The latest sales data coming out of Japan has confirmed that ongoing stock shortages have seen the PlayStation 5 once again outsold by the Xbox Series X/S.
As per data from Famitsu (via VGC ), Microsoft's home consoles have sold more than double the number of units as the PS5 in Japan.
In the last week the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series X sold 3,272 and 3,423 units respectively.
Sony's new-gen console managed 2,371 (Standard) and 664 (Digital).
Unsurprisingly, it looks as if these sales figures come down to simple stock issues.
The PlayStation brand has historically always done much better in Japan compared to Xbox.
Sure enough, just last week PS5 (Standard and Digital) managed to sell 12,440 compared to a combined X/S sales of 6,242.
