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.”

That's over $500million, and that's not including accessories and games.

I was expecting higher numbers from them honestly. It's still a huge amount of money though, they certainly did make a lot.

To be fair, Sony sold 1 mil too.

DollPosted:

So that definitely means Microsoft made more money than Sony.

Why do people think that the PS4 has the upper hand at the moment just because Microsoft chose to market their product in more countries? Even if the PS4 had marketed their product in 100 countries at the beginning, sales will still be the same as marketing it in 1 country since supply cant cope with demand regardless on how many countries the consoles are released in. Simple economics kids

You mean how much they lost to the PS4 by.
