Sony’s PlayStation 5 and Microsofts’s Xbox Series X, are the two most anticipated next-gen consoles. With console wars being waged in all its fury, the next-gen consoles have gone online for pre-orders and it seems that there is an extremely tough competition between the two next-gen consoles.

The popularity of these consoles in the pre-order season largely depends on the software and hardware that they offer and most importantly the game package that they provide.

Reportedly, VGM conducted a pre-order survey report offering some juicy details about what is influencing the pre-order sales on the next-gen consoles. The survey took into consideration the pole rating of 511 people based in the US.

Out of these 511, 72% of the people involved voted for the disc edition of PlayStation 5 to be their number one choice. But according to sources, only 15% of the 72% made the pre-order of their survey choice.

#### *However, Microsofts Xbox Series X was selected by 30% of people involved in the survey, the PS5 Digital Edition scored 10% while the box Series S dropped to 8%.*

Sources claim that the main reason why PS5 has seen an increase in pre-orders exclusively depends on the latest exclusive titles offered by Sony. *Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales* (52%), *God of War: Ragnarok* (42%), and *Final Fantasy XVI* (32%) are the primary choices of PS5 buyers.

For Xbox, the games attracting buyers include *Halo Infinite* (45%), *Fable* (26%), and *Forza Motorsport 8* (24%) seems to be the driving force. However, sources claim that buyers are more interested in subscription services like Game Pass when it comes to buying [Xbox Series X and Series S](https://technosports.co.in/2020/09/09/official-microsoft-xbox-series-x-to-cost-499-the-series-s-will-cost-299/).

The survey clearly pints that the most desired package overall in this instance is the Blu-ray PS5 console. But as of now, both Microsoft and Sony are dealing with pre-order related issues which are reportedly taking time to get resolved.
