In today’s Daily Fix:
Things are not looking good for Xbox on the hardware front. The latest sales data from Circana shows that Xbox hardware sales have declined by a massive 70% in the US year-on-year. To be fair, hardware sales for the PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch 1 and 2 were also down through November of 2024, but these numbers are particularly damaging for Xbox. This year alone saw two significant price increases on Xbox hardware. In other news, Sony and Tencent have agreed to a ‘confidential settlement’ with the Light of Motiram lawsuit. It appears that the game has now been removed from Steam and the Epic Games Store. No cancellations have been announced. And finally, is FIFA back as the organization has announced a new game in partnership with Netflix?
