However, the gaming segment showed a 7% decline in sales, and Xbox console sales decreased by 29%. Despite this, certain games and services, such as Game Pass, continue to demonstrate strong results. For example, the game Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 became the best-selling on Xbox and PlayStation and attracted the most players at release in the history of the series.

Additionally, Microsoft reported that the game Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, released on December 9, 2024, has already been played by over 4 million players. Due to the popularity of cloud gaming, Xbox Cloud Gaming hours have exceeded 140 million.

The company reported that revenue from Windows sales for computer manufacturers and its own devices, such as Surface, has also risen by 4%. Microsoft explains this growth by the fact that support for Windows 10 is ending, and more manufacturers are transitioning to new systems.
