MCV reports that Microsoft have sold through more than one million units of Xbox One to consumers in the UK. Retail sources tell MCV that Xbox One has outsold PS4 for the last three weeks.
Sony reached the one million milestone in September, making it the second fastest console to reach a million (only beaten by Wii). As far Microsoft goes the Xbox One beats out its predecessor Xbox 360 (60 weeks) and it's roughly in line with PS2 (50 weeks).
UK Xbox marketing director Harvey Eagle told MCV:
"We're seeing fantastic momentum with Xbox One having sold almost 10 million units to retailers worldwide."
"This momentum is reflected in the UK, particularly over the last three weeks, which is extremely encouraging as we approach the Christmas shopping period. People buy consoles to play the best games, and Xbox One is home to the best games. Halo: The Master Chief Collection is one of the highest rated next-gen console games released, Sunset Overdrive is the highest rated new franchise on any next-gen console and Forza Horizon 2 is the highest rated driving game on any next gen console."
"We have an excellent line up of games to look forward to in 2015, including Quantum Break, Fable Legends and of course Halo 5: Guardians. With some great deals to be had on the high street, now really is the best time to be an Xbox One owner."
