In a surprising turn of events, Xbox hardware revenue has taken a hit, decreasing by a staggering 42% compared to last year. However, all is not lost for the gaming giant, as overall gaming revenue for FY24 Q4 is up by an impressive 44%, thanks in large part to the recent acquisition of Activision Blizzard.

However, with such strong revenue growth and the impact of the Activision acquisition still being felt, it’s clear that Xbox is far from out of the game. Stay tuned as we continue to monitor the exciting developments in the gaming world.
