    There is a little more than a month left until the start of sales of the new generation consoles. Sony and Microsoft have prepared different tactics for this year with which they want to attract users, and it will be interesting to see which tactics will pay off more and how console sales will move.

    Sony’s offer is pretty clear – $ 499 for a model with a disc reader or $ 399 for an All-Digital model for which games can only be purchased online and run from an SSD.

    There is a little more than a month left until the start of sales of the new generation consoles. Sony and Microsoft have prepared different tactics for this year with which they want to attract users, and it will be interesting to see which tactics will pay off more and how console sales will move.

    Sony’s offer is pretty clear – $ 499 for a model with a disc reader or $ 399 for an All-Digital model for which games can only be purchased online and run from an SSD.

    On the other hand, Microsoft’s strongest console on the market will also sell for $ 499, but the big sales trump card of the American company is the Xbox Series S. A new generation console that is not as strong and graphically powerful as the X model and does not support 4K resolution. the price is a pretty reasonable $ 299.

    Although the new Xbox is, at least a weaker version, data on visits to the websites of Sony and Microsoft at the time when pre-orders are open show that the early winner of this war console – Sony. These data were published by the company SimilarWeb, which monitors the number of visits to the pages – according to them, the number of visits to the pages playstation.com and xbox.com was similar before the start of pre-orders of consoles.

    However, on September 16, the day when it was possible to pre-order the PlayStation, the traffic on the page reached 892 thousand visits, which is an increase of almost 328 percent compared to the average. As for the Xbox, on the day when pre-orders started, visits increased by 263 percent compared to the average, with about 776 thousand visitors. So, PlayStation pre-orders attracted about 116 thousand more visits to the official page of “Playke” compared to the beginning of pre-orders for the upcoming Microsoft console.

    Although these are only website traffic figures, it can be concluded that there is currently a greater demand for the Sony console. However, we need to wait for the start of sales, as well as the holiday period when the demand for consoles is greatest, to find out how users “breathe” when it comes to the new Pleika and Xbox Series X / S.
