PlayStation 4 outsold Xbox One in February

Gamers continue to flock to the latest hardware offerings from Sony and Microsoft, but only one can dominate this generation.

PlayStation 4 outsold the Xbox One once again at physical retailers in the United States in February, according to data from industry-tracking firm The NPD Group, which Sony Computer Entertainment America provided to GamesBeat. This continues a streak of wins for Sony’s home console that extends back through the holidays. In the last 14 months, the Xbox One has only outsold PS4 two out of the last 14 months. This has created a market where Sony is the clear the leader both in the States and worldwide — although the Xbox One continues to sell well and is generating revenue both for Microsoft and for third-party publishers. Gaming is a $99.3 billion business worldwide across all platforms, and the consoles make up a big piece of that.
