Given the differences in approaches with their adjacent-generation consoles, the and so-called 'console war' between Sony and Microsoft is arguably moot. Nevertheless, most console gamers will demand to make a choice between the PS5 and Xbox Series X.

And it would appear that the PS5 is coming out on top. That's because data gathered past SimilarWeb and passed on to TNW has shown that there's a marked deviation between the number of people visiting playstation.com and xbox.com when the console'southward pre-orders went live.

According to the data, when PS5 pre-orders went alive on September 16, somewhat chaotically, visitors to Sony'south console website peaked at 892,000. In comparison, visitors to the Xbox site striking a peak of 776,200 when Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S pre-orders went alive on September 22.

Pre-orders for all three consoles sold out rapidly, and it'south still a challenge to find a retailer that has some availability.

But it looks like Sony has the edge on the number of people who appear to be after its side by side-generation console. In that location's nuance to be had here, in that people torn between the PS5 and Xbox Serial Ten might take only gone for Sony'south auto as it was the first to set its pre-orders live.

The PS5 as well has a Digital Edition — offering all the power of the standard PS5 but removes its disc drive — that undercuts the $499 Xbox Series X with a toll tag of $399. Then the Digital Edition might have tempted people to become for a PS5.

That beingness said, Sony sold a lot more PS4 consoles than Microsoft did with the Xbox Ane. And then finer, Sony has a larger core of PlayStation players to take with it to the next console generation. Arguably, it's no surprise that the PS5 is getting more than attention than its Xbox rival.

Nevertheless, it'due south interesting to see the Xbox Series 10 get so much attention, given it's brand pull is arguably smaller than PlayStation's. No incertitude Microsoft's approach to requite the Xbox Serial X the nigh power it can — 12 teraflops compared to the PS5'due south x.28 teraflops — has helped attract console fans. And having the cheaper $299 Xbox Series S can't injure either, given that automobile offers an alternative options for people who don't want to sink most $500 on a gaming gadget.

With the Xbox consoles due to launch November ten and the PS5 launching Nov 12 in the U.S., we'll presently run across which comes out on top. But it would appear both console brands could be onto a winner.
