Microsoft sells more than 2 million Xbox Ones in 2.5 weeks

Microsoft is selling an average of 111,111 Xbox One consoles every day, which is a record pace for the Xbox brand.

In the 18 days since Xbox One debuted on Nov. 22, customers have purchased over 2 million Xbox Ones. For comparison, Sony revealed that it sold 2.1 million PlayStation 4s between Nov. 15 and Dec. 3, which also covers an 18-day period. That’s not an ideal comparison, since Xbox One launched in 13 countries on Nov 22, while PlayStation 4 debuted first in North America on Nov. 15 before releasing in Europe and Latin America on Nov. 29.
