Microsoft’s Xbox Series X and Series S consoles will remain in short supply due to “significant demand,” Microsoft chief financial officer Amy Hood said during a quarterly earnings call.

During the earnings call, Microsoft executives said that Microsoft’s earnings during the quarter were up 51%, with the hardware sales accounting for 86% of it. Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella said gaming revenue surpassed $5 billion.

“The launch of Xbox Series X and Series S was the most successful in our history, with the most devices ever sold in a launch month,” Nadella said. “Game developers are benefitting, too, as they turn to us to reach more players and scale the games using the power of our cloud. We exceeded $2 billion in revenue from third-party titles this quarter for the first time.”
