Across the whole of Europe, console and PC games sales were down 11% for the first quarter of the year. But console sales were up 41%. Console success was down to PS5, with sales up 369% year-on-year. Offsetting declines from Switch (-18%) ad Xbox Series S and X (-10%)

It is definitely not subjective for people who would have to spend three to four paychecks to buy a console and games. Everyone always looks at the lenses as if everyone can afford gaming in their developed countries.

Series S + gamepass is the best value in gaming. No refuting that. It is the cheapest way at the highest level possible. Especially people outside of developed countries.

Even Sony themselves know that game pass is of the best value in subscription. Like when it was revealed by the Brazilian Regulators on the Activation acquisition that Sony understand that no one can compete with game pass. It is pretty much the reason why Sony has been against the acquisition because they know game pass will be impossible to compete with if it gets CoD.
