Microsoft has revealed that during the second quarter of its fiscal year 2023, monthly active users on Xbox reached a record 120 million despite overall gaming revenue declining over the same period. When speaking to investors during the fiscal year 2023 earnings call for Microsoft's second quarter, CEO Satya Nadella said that Xbox surpassed 120 million active monthly users and that Xbox Game Pass subscriptions reached "new highs." "In gaming, we continue to pursue our ambition to give players more choice to play great games wherever, whenever, and however they want," Satya Nadella said. "We saw new highs for Game Pass subscriptions, game streaming hours, and monthly active devices. And monthly active users surpassed a record 120 million during the quarter. We continue to invest to add value to Game Pass. This quarter, we partnered with Riot Games to make the company’s PC and mobile games, along with premium content, available to subscribers." "We’re energised by our upcoming lineup of AAA game launches, including exciting new titles from ZeniMax and Xbox Game Studios," Nadella continued. "In closing, I want to extend my deepest gratitude to our employees for their continued dedication to our mission, customers, and partners." You can catch a handful of the upcoming games during the Xbox Developer Direct later today.

These numbers are inflated, they count all Microsoft accounts so if you’re playing Minecraft on other devices. That gets included.

I'm waiting for a new Sony press release to counter this:

"God of War has managed to cure cancer."

"The Last Of Us voted best game in our Solar System."

"Sony denies paying for pro-Sony spam articles to curve the fact that they are actually salty about that Microsoft - Activision Blizzard deal. "

Gamepass is a service you have to pay for. Not every Microsoft account is subscribed to gamepass. It’s weird how you’re instantly trying to shoot it down like you don’t want it to be true.

I have gamepass and it’s trash in my opinion. The only game I’ve played on it was Halo. I may get life of P.

You guys really cling to brand and act like you’re in some gang. sh*t is psychotic

3 days late is far from instant friend.

Just stating these number are inflated. And I agree gamepass is trash, I have a PC so some friends get it, and some of us don't see it being worth it.

I usually say something about these gamepass post, but that's all Microsoft got at this point. 122 million active users, I wonder if a game received 60% of that in game downloads?

This is such a stupid comment. I’m gonna need u to rethink that. That’s all Microsoft has?

One of the biggest software companies of all time and in the world… that’s all they got?

This is why I’m starting to think that these debates are meaningless. Some of you will just have a narrative in your head and then spin and spin until you think that makes sense.

I lowkey blame skip Bayless for this sh*t because a lot of you were raised by him and so called gangsta music

Lol you got proof or you just voicing your feelings?

They just added N64 Goldeneye on there too

Biggest dik riding post I've seen in awhile. If you want what Microsoft really got, move this sh*t to the tech thread and suck em off all you want because they run things there. Otherwise, in the gaming thread my point stands they got a so call great service with no high quality games. So all they can brag about is user count because it's not game sales

You’re calling me a d*ck rider when I have all systems and I play my ps5 more than any of them.

My point is that it’s not a war. You over here trying to discredit Microsoft and you’re talking about game sales. You don’t get any of those sales.

And a lot of games come out for both PS and Xbox. So u act like Microsoft users have NOTHING to play.

I play COD on Xbox. Because most of my friends have Xbox. It’s so corny for you to behave like this. Ppl actually like gamepass and the games they have out. And it’s ok. I promise u it’s not that serious.


You are not in a Sony gang. Live your life bro

17 of the 30 highest rated games last year dropped directly into Game Pass day one. 6 different GOTY winners.

No high quality games he says

Edit: 10 different GOTY winners.

I have a ps5, Xbox, pc and switch. I've had gamepass ultimate since the launch of gears of war 5 and I just extended it for 3 more years. I play my multiplayers on Xbox and the AAA exclusives on ps5. This has nothing to do with a war. You bringing up Microsoft outside of gaming is dik riding. We in a gaming thread not tech. Want to turn this into a tech thread so I can tell you how great Microsoft azure is or is this gaming.

Game sales matter. Can you consider a game high quality when nobody want it?

Yes!!!

Xenogears is my favorite game of all time and it wasn’t that popular.

Wild Arms 1 and 2 were amazing.

Legend of Legaia

Final fantasy 13 1 and 2

King of f*ghters

Street f*ghter EX

DMC

These are high quality games that didn’t sell well. That comments just proves that you’re shallow. You only rock with something if others are rocking with it. You probably do that sh*t with music too.

It’s fans like you that give hiphop a bad name.

Only the greatest gaming service. Doing numbers
