The Quest 2 sells 20 million headsets since 2020, outpacing Xbox Series X/S

Meta’s VP of VR Mark Rabkin gave the statistic to staff during an internal roadmap presentation, The Verge’s Alex Heath reports. For comparison, PlayStation 5 had officially sold 32 million units as of February 2 and estimates from December put Xbox Series X|S at around 20 million.

So which one of these things were supposed to be niche again?

Rabkin apparently told staff newer buyers are not as engaged as early adopters. “Right now, we’re on our third year of Quest 2,” he reportedly said. “And sadly, the newer cohorts that are coming in, the people who bought it this last Christmas, they’re just not as into it as the ones who bought it early.”
