Microsoft says that the Xbox Series X has now outsold all previous editions of its gaming console and is now Microsoft’s most successful gaming console ever.

CEO Satya Nadella made the announcement in an earnings report this week and also reported that the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S had stronger launch months than any other Xbox console the company has ever produced and sold.

The task before the company is to sustain the momentum so that both consoles will continue to gain users, although they have had a very impressive start so far.

The Xbox Series X launch may have been significantly boosted by the Xbox Game Pass subscriptions, as subscriber numbers have been on an upswing. Presently, Xbox Game Pass has up to 18 million subscribers spread across various subscription packages, between $10 and $15 monthly subscription fees.

The premium subscription package, Xbox Game Pass Ultimate is likely to be what is drawing droves of new subscribers. This could also be part of the reason for increased sales of the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S, with additional perks put for new console buyers by Microsoft via a promo.

It has to be stated that Xbox has large and quite loyal followership. That certainly adds to the mix of impressive results coming from Microsoft.
The gaming pass package is becoming quite popular, attracting many users especially now with the incorporation of cloud gaming services into it. It is now possible to play your Xbox games even without having the console.

At the moment, it is possible to enjoy the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate at least for three months, as new subscribers could hop in with just $1 for the trial period before a full monthly access fee of $14.99 will be charged.
