“Everything speaks in favor of PlayStation 5”: Analysts from DFC Intelligence reacted to the announcement of the Xbox Series S

Announcement of the second next generation console from Microsoft as Xbox series s triggered a wave of heated discussion and controversy across the web. But apart from the attention from ordinary users, the device also forced a number of analytical companies to adjust their forecasts regarding the launch of the next gaming systems.

So, company DFC Intelligence, known for her analysis of gaming markets, believes that the announcement Xbox series s can negatively affect sales Xbox series x, and also mislead part of the audience about performance

“Microsoft has positioned Series X as the most powerful system on the market and is now suddenly announcing a budget solution for a modest price.”

Separately DFC Intelligence notes that supply chain disruptions caused by supply chain disruptions and logistics difficulties will create a situation where a limited number of new gaming systems will be available in stores during the holiday season.

“All the hardware that hits the stores before the end of 2023 will definitely be sold out. The consoles are likely to be delivered in a very limited number. It is possible that Microsoft managed to collect enough Xbox Series S, which in theory, in the early stages, will give the Xbox a significant increase in the user base “.

Agency experts believe that now the winner of the future race looms Playstation 5… Sony has a unique system in terms of filling and has a clear strategy of exclusives for hardcore gamers.

“However, by now, everything speaks in favor of the PlayStation 5. Microsoft has lost the attention of the audience within the media channels, in turn, the PS5 is being presented as a device created for those who are interested in completely new and attractive games.

The Xbox brand focuses on the digital future and support for the classic series through Game Pass and xCloud. As we have stated in previous reports, such a strategy has strong long-term potential. But when you are going to sell completely new high-performance hardware, this is far from the most optimal approach, “continues DFC Intelligence.

Recall that in early August, analysts from DFC Intelligence predicted, what Playstation 5 will outstrip Xbox series x on sales approximately doubled.

Running Xbox series x and Xbox series s will take place 10th of November… The exact date of the start of sales Playstation 5 has not yet been revealed.
