Ike★ 2,922 Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Microsoft's quarterly earnings for October through December of 2021 saw the company's gaming revenue reach $5.44 billion — a new record not just for the holiday season, but for the company's quarterly gaming sales in general. It's a $411 million (or 8%) increase in gaming revenue from that same period last year, when the Xbox Series X and S had just launched and everyone was still largely locked down, staying home, and playing more games due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Microsoft says that growth was driven by growth almost across the board: Xbox content and services revenue was up 10% thanks to first-party sales and Game Pass subscriptions (thanks, Halo Infinite!), and Xbox hardware revenue was up 4% due to continued demand for brand new consoles. The only element of the segment that dropped was third-party game sales. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
