Microsoft has announced a successful Xbox One launch with over 1 million units sold worldwide in the first 24 hours. That roughly matches Sony’s PlayStation 4, which also topped 1 million in its first day.

Friday’s launch outpaced the launches for the Xbox 360 and the original Xbox.

If you’re looking for more Xbox One stats, Microsoft provided the following numbers:

Over 60 million zombies have been killed in “Dead Rising 3”
Over 3.6 million miles driven in “Forza Motorsport 5”
Over 7.1 million combos in “Killer Instinct”
Over 8.5 million enemies defeated in “Ryse: Son of Rome”
43.3 million Fit Points earned in Xbox Fitness
The firm also noted in its release that the Xbox One is sold out at “most retailers.”

KAQ How much did the ps4 do ? and not really surprising tbh :/ still wont beat the ps2 though :P


It sold a million on the first day aswell.

But I personally believe both the ps4 and xbox one will sell well over the 100 million mark. They will both break the current record.

Too you idiots trying too start console wars about ps4 getting that much in one day... They can't make a billion consoles in such little time. EVERYWHERE is sold out. Launch day does not determine most bought console check back in about march

Ted- This is scary that PS4 got 1 million in America only, but XB1 only got a million worldwide.


Wasn't aware there were only 13 countries in the world.


Even so, 13 countries( xbox) vs 2-3 countries (Sony) and they both sell around the same in that time perioid, shows sony are on top at the moment and im not fanboy in any sort of way im just comparing the both.

You're forgetting that there are only a certain amount of consoles they have, If they are sold out at most retailers then how are you supposed to get one?
