Business is booming for Xbox. Microsoft has reported earnings for its Fiscal Year 2021 Q2, and included in the report are some new numbers that speak to how Microsoft's gaming division--like other gaming publishers--is riding high right now due in part increased spending on games due to COVID-19.This is the first earnings release from Microsoft since it launched the Xbox Series X|S consoles in November. The release of those systems helped overall Xbox hardware sales jump by 86%.Hardware revenue could have been higher were it not for product shortages. Analyst Daniel Ahmad said he believes the Xbox Series X|S consoles did not move as many units right away than the Xbox One did over the same timeframe. "This has been reflected in global sell-through data, too. Mainly due to production it seems," he wrote.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Yesterday on the Good Game, Nice Try podcast, late night icon Conan O'Brien joined hosts Sonja Reid and Aaron Bleyaert to give his "incredibly unfair and invalid" opinion on Innersloth's smash-hit Among Us. His verdict: it's not a good game.Bleyaert posed the question of how O'Brien felt about Among Us to sort of test the waters and get the conversation flowing. O'Brien was quick to jump on the opportunity, as he loves to tick off gamers. "As everyone knows, I don't know a lot about games, and I'm not good at games," O'Brien said. "But I love having a lot of opinions about games and sharing those with people in the legitimate gaming world, thus infuriating them."Once Beyaert revealed the game in question, O'Brien excitedly told his companions on the show that he had heard of the game because it's one of his son's favorites. He went on to (jokingly) admit that he tends to space out when his children talk about video games or their feelings, so he had no real concept of the game other than its name and the fact that his son received a crocheted crewmate (or Blip Blop, as O'Brien calls them) from the game for his birthday.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Microsoft's Xbox business is booming, and this includes huge numbers for revenue, Xbox Game Pass, Xbox Live users, and console sales, the company said during an earnings call.Xbox Game Pass is one of Microsoft's key strategies for next-gen, and the subscription service now has 18 million subscribers, which is up from 15 million that was announced in September. The addition of 3 million subscribers might be lower than some might have imagined, considering the holidays and other factors, but this might have been related to how Xbox Series X|S consoles have been and continue to be hard to find due to sell-outs around the world.Despite that, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella said the Xbox Series X|S consoles enjoyed a strong start. Microsoft sold more Xbox Series X and S consoles during their launch month than any previous Xbox console over the same time frame, the executive said.
