PS4 and Xbox One Pre-Orders Twice That Of Previous Gen

Ubisoft president Yves Guillemot has claimed that pre-orders for this year’s next gen consoles are twice that of the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.

During an investor call made yesterday, Guillemot said the pre-orders were “two times” those of the previous gen devices released in 2005 and 2006.

The announcements of both Sony and Microsoft’s new consoles have been met with intense scrutiny and enormous amounts of coverage from the media.

Higher levels of pre-orders should be expected both for this reason and the fact that there are more gamers now than ever and a bigger focus on pre-orders from retailers than ever before as well.
