PS4 outselling Xbox One 1.5:1 in UK

3.9
Sony claims that its PlayStation 4 is outselling Microsoft’s Xbox One by a ratio of 1.5:1 in the UK indicating that for every 2 Xbox One units, Sony is selling 3 PlayStation 4 units in the UK.

Speaking at an event in the UK PlayStation UK boss Fergal Gara further added that PlayStation 3 sales figures are exactly the opposite. Xbox 360 was outselling the PlayStation 3 by 1.51:1 according to latest sales figures.

The latest PS4 to Xbox One sales ratio of 1.5:1 is impressive as Xbox 360 has a greater fan following in the UK as compared to Europe where PlayStation consoles fare better.

According to analysis reports and inventory data, Xbox Ones are easier to get in the UK as compared to PlayStation 4 and that probably explains the stats revealed by Gara.

As of December 2013, Sony managed to sell 4.2 million units of PlayStation 4, while Microsoft sold 3 million Xbox One with 3.9 million ‘shipped’. This puts the sales ratio of PS4 to Xbox One at 2:1.5.

I think it is kind of weird how the consoles did complete opposites, as 1.5:1 for 360 to PS3 and then PS4 to One. I think that this really shows that the cheaper console sells better no matter the features, the PS3 when released was way more expensive then the 360 and it ended up not doing as good as the 360.

Valor Only reason is because the PS4 ended up being cheaper.

It will balance out soon enough.


I would rather the Playstation 4 than the the Xbox One because the Xbox One has too many features.

I'd get ps4 for the price and killzone, but i'd get xbox for cod and titanfall.

Well if I was in the UK I would buy the PS4 over the Xbox One considering it is cheaper, better, and plus it has a lot more features.

PS4 has more features & its cheaper. If Xbox wants to compete, they need to lower the price, and have a few more good useful updates.

JiNX_AdR I really don't see how PS4 out sold the Xbox One, the only reason may be that it is cheaper.


do your research before spamming my friend.

I really would think that the xbox one would be outselling the PS4 but i guess it's not since the prices are different.
