There was more stock available of the Xbox Series X in March than in previous months, which helped boost Xbox Series X|S sales.
It was overall a tough month for the amount of stock available for consoles in the UK. all three platforms are down year-to-date after three months.
"March looks like it's been another tough month for console stock in the UK," said Dring. "Particularly on PS5, although it's better than February. Xbox Series S and X had the best month in March, primarily due to the arrival of more X consoles. All three platforms are down year-to-date."
