More people considering the PS5 than the next Xbox – Game Rant

According to analysts, the next generation of consoles is not so far away. Microsoft and Sony are expected to announce the announcement of the PS5 and the next Xbox at E3 2020, which will take place next summer. In anticipation of these official announcements, players are now being asked whether the SP5 or the next Xbox could go out on top.

Harris Interactive, a British firm specializing in market research, surveyed gamers in the region to find out what they expected to buy when the next generation of consoles arrived. 2,146 interviews were conducted with people aged 16-64. The PlayStation 5 was a winner: 38% of those surveyed said they would consider buying the PS5 console and 41% said it was the system that they "would have the most." tendency to buy. In comparison, 26% said they would consider buying Xbox next-generation console, and 24% call it the console they are most likely to buy.

The projects of the future Nintendo console have also attracted some interest. 21% of respondents said they would consider buying a Nintendo Switch 2, with 17% calling it the console they are most likely to buy. The reports suggest that Nintendo plans to release two new Nintendo Switch consoles this year. According to the Harris Interactive survey, new hardware releases could be a big seller in the UK or even the rest of the world.

However, Nintendo, Microsoft and Sony could face a daunting challenge with Google Stadia. Google's streaming platform was announced last week, and although some Google Stadia-compatible games have been confirmed, the survey confirms that it is attracting a lot of interest.

25% of respondents said they would consider taking out a subscription to Google Stadia and 19% said that it was what they were most likely to buy. Google has not confirmed Google Stadia pricing or its business model (whether it is a subscription-based system or not). If the price of the platform is reasonable, it could quickly attract many subscribers when it launches in the UK (as well as in the US and Canada) later this year.

No console has yet been announced, it seems a little early to call the race. After the failure of the Nintendo Wii U, few would have expected the Nintendo Switch to perform as well, but the console offered powerful features and is incredibly sold. Similarly, Stadia, the PS5 and the next Xbox could all stumble and leave all these future Stadia, SP5, and Xbox the buyers surveyed reconsider.
