A year ago when the Fallout TV show came out, Microsoft had more best-selling first-party games on the PlayStation Store than Sony did. This trend showed the full extent of Microsoft's owned IPs and illustrated PlayStation gamers' willingness to buy Xbox exclusives. The latter is something Microsoft has counted on and PlayStation has now reinforced itself as an integral part of its competitor's business.
While we typically can't exactly quantify the results of these trends in precise numbers, analyst firms track the performance of these games in their respective online stores and make predictions. According to Alinea Analytics, Bethesda's big-budget Indiana Jones game is actually selling better on PlayStation than it is on Xbox and Steam--a trend that may speak to the conditioning of these subset of consumers. Alinea also notes that PlayStation gamers appeared to wait for the full version of the game rather than buy the premium early access version: "Ultimately, the PS5 version's sales outpaced the Steam ones as soon as the 'real' PlayStation launch period kicked off on April 17.
Indiana Jones has now sold over 300K copies on Steam after four months. We expect the PlayStation version to outdo that." Check below for quick stats from Alinea's prediction:.
