The NPD Group has released their full North American sales data for November 2020, and it was certainly an interesting month for the industry! Of course, November is the top month of any year, but this time around we also had the release of the new Xbox Series X/S and PS5. Unsurprisingly, numbers were way up year-on-year with players spending $7 billion on games, additional content, and hardware. That’s up 35 percent compared to November 2019.

On the hardware front, the new PlayStation 5 was the top console of the month in terms of total revenue generated, but the Switch beat it out in terms of total units sold. That means the Switch has been the top dog in terms of total units sold for a record-setting 24 straight months. No specific word from NPD on what that Xbox Series X/S sold, but it’s obviously in third place behind the Switch and PS5.
