During Electronic Arts’ financial conference call for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2018 Chief Financial Officer Blake Jorgensen talked about the company’s predictions about console sales in the current year.
The publisher expects PS4 and Xbox One to “continue to be strong.” Electronic Arts expects the combined installed base of the two consoles to 130 million units by the end of the calendar year 2018. We also get an estimate of 103 million by December 31st, 2017.
This means that if EA’s estimate is correct, the Xbox One sold 29.4 million units by December 31st, 2018, considering that we know that PS4 sold 73.6 million units by that same date.
Jorgensen also added that the publisher expects the Nintendo switch to have built an installed base of over 30 million by December 21st, 2018.
