The most anticipated releases of the year in the world of video games have hit scary numbers like GTA V, Call of Duty: Ghosts and Battlefield 4. But what about the consoles? If more than 1 million PS4 units were sold in 24 hours then to demonstrate the power of Sony's big rival, the Xbox One also sold more than 1 million units in less than 24 hours, according to information published by Microsoft.
Really scary numbers, but the PlayStation 4 seems to be at an advantage by having achieved that brand in only two countries: Canada and the US. This is because Sony has not yet officially launched the console in Europe, an event scheduled for 29 November.
According to article on the console's official website, the Xbox is reportedly sold out in most stores, a fact that requires Microsoft to work to replenish stock as soon as possible. Corporate Vice President Yusuf Mehdi added the following:
“We are humbly grateful for the excitement of Xbox fans around the world. Seeing millions of fans excited and excited to get their Xbox One and their love of gaming was truly a special moment for everyone on the Xbox team. We are working hard to create more than Xbox One… ”
Despite the high numbers generated by sales and a large number of happy gamers, not everything runs 100%, an extra tension is being placed on the teams that deal with stock replenishment for two reasons: the high demand that led to the fast depletion of the console and the replacement of defective units that have been reported by customers.
