Minecraft earns more revenue on Switch than PlayStation and Xbox

Microsoft was asked if the game is “a significant revenue driver for Xbox”, which the company confirmed is correct. However, it’s actually the smallest on Xbox. PlayStation is about twice as big, but Nintendo is roughly twice as big as PlayStation. That puts the Switch version as four times bigger as Xbox as far as revenue is concerned.
