1. Executive Summary Purpose: This report synthesizes and analyzes the sales performance of four leading video game platforms and digital storefronts—Playstation (Sony), Xbox (Microsoft), Nintendo Switch (Nintendo), and Steam (Valve)—over the five fiscal years spanning approximately FY2020 to FY2024. It aims to provide a consolidated view of their financial trajectories, key performance drivers, and the evolving market dynamics during this period. Key Findings Overview: The analysis period witnessed significant shifts in the video game landscape. The launch of the Playstation 5 (PS5) and Xbox Series X/S consoles in late 2020 spurred revenue growth for Sony and Microsoft, despite persistent supply chain challenges in the initial years. Nintendo experienced the peak commercial success of its Switch platform, followed by a gradual, though highly profitable, maturation phase. Steam, the dominant PC digital distribution platform, demonstrated robust estimated revenue growth, fueled by an expanding user base and a continuous influx of diverse game releases. Digital sales, subscription services (like Xbox Game Pass and Playstation Plus), and add-on content (microtransactions, DLC) became increasingly crucial revenue streams across all platforms. Furthermore, major industry consolidation, exemplified by Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision Blizzard, began reshaping the competitive environment and revenue structures.
