Why Is Battlefield: Hardline So Much More Popular On PS4?

So, this is interesting:

According to Battlefield: Hardline statistics (as tracked by the P-Stats Network and cited by PS4Daily ), the game has proven to be far more popular on Sony's new console as opposed to Xbox One.

Currently, there are over 4 times as many active players on PS4 when compared to Microsoft's latest console; it's about 800,000 to less than 200,000. There are even more active PS4 players than PC players, which is a little surprising, given the fact that Battlefield is typically a big draw on PC. The graph makes it plain: For whatever reason(s), Battlefield: Hardline is doing far better with the PlayStation brand.

But why? Anybody have any ideas? As far as I know, the PS4 version wasn't technically superior, was it? Are all the Xboxers just playing Call of Duty because it's basically all they play, anyway? 😉 Yes, j/k.

  Ben PS4 is a good deal superior last I knew Hardline was 720p 60FPS on X1 and 900P 60FPS on PS4.
  But doubt that has much to do with it.

  Sony doesn't have that big of a lead.
  But on that topic when was the last time we have heard a number for the X1? Last report from Microsoft I heard was the one at the close of December saying they had "shipped" a little over 10 million units while Sony recently reported they had sold to consumers almost 21 million.

  We'll we see a steep dip in active players on Hardline, when Rainbow Six:Siege releases?

  I love the game. It is the best Battlefield game by far. I am on my 3rd play through. The stealth is so addicting.

  That was my thought….the hard sale numbers are starting to reveal the disparity between the two systems, especially in AAA games. I wouldn't be surprised if BLOPS III also shows a shift.
