In the modern console wars, the PlayStation 4 has a few more soldiers than the Xbox One does.

In a poll of over 2,000 North American developers who attended 2014’s Game Developer’s Conference, 26 percent of those surveyed said that they are currently working on a PlayStation 4 game. Comparatively, 22 percent said that they were developing an Xbox One game. Still, PC and mobile platforms remain the most popular with those polled at the GDC. Fifty-six percent said that their working on a PC game, and 50 percent said that their current project is for mobile. Both platforms are popular with large and independent studios, due to their relatively more open nature when compared to consoles. The study didn’t post numbers for the Wii U.
