Thanks to the rise in the sales of the latest series of Xbox, Microsoft just managed to capture a healthy market share for two consecutive quarters. It was recently revealed that in terms of gaming business, the company generated huge revenue for a non-holiday quarter.

As per the fresh report, Microsoft’s gaming revenue increased by six percent year-over-year to an impressive $3.7 billion. Not to mention that Xbox Series X|S contributed significantly to this amazing outcome.

Xbox helps Microsoft to take the market share globally for two successive quarters!

The console war between Microsoft and Sony has grown extensively in the last few years. Previously it was the PlayStation mostly ending up having the last laugh, but things have now changed drastically.

Although the PlayStation 5 is still selling well (when it’s in stocks), the new line-up of Xbox has actually witnessed a massive jump in its sales. The growth has been consistent, to say the least when compared to the past performance results.

According to VGC, Microsoft’s CEO Satya Nadella recently mentioned that the Xbox Series X|S consoles have played a key role in making them grab a global market share. The information was revealed during the company’s third-quarter earnings call.
