Selvom at Microsoft har formået at forøge tempoet på produktionen af deres Xbox Series-konsoller, som også har resulteret i et bedre salg verden over, så slår de stadig fast at de ikke kan producere nok til at møde efterspørgslen helt.
For nylig talte Microsoft med deres investorer (via GamesIndustry), og her slog Xbox-afdelingens CFO, Tim Stuart, fast, at deres supply chain vil forblive "rocky" igennem resten af 2022.
"In an investor call hosted by financial services company Baird, Stuart said that he expected "that the supply chain environment could remain rocky through 2022 and the holiday season," the firm reported.
The supply chain is impacted by recent lockdowns in China, he added.
Manufacturers are facing two issues, according to Stuart: limited parts -- which he reportedly said "favour Series S consoles" -- and "elevated logistics pricing pressuring margins.""
Det kunne betyde at det fortsat er sværere end normalt at få fingrene i en Xbox Series-konsol, eller en PS5 for den sags skyld.
