These numbers look very encouraging and it’s most likely to increase in the coming years. It’s a very positive sign that Series X/S is gaining momentum. Finally, the people of Japan are ready to explore something different from PlayStation and Nintendo Switch.

The reason behind this growth might be the change in strategy by Xbox. Back in 2013, Xbox One focused more on “Kinetic” instead of the games and exclusive titles. And now they’re more focused on delivering better content to Xbox users.
