Summary
Head of Xbox Phil Spencer has shared his Xbox Year in Review numbers, revealing a whopping 917 hours played in 2023.

However, that hasn’t stopped the gamer from getting in quite a bit of play time.
Every December, gamers can view their stats for the year via the PlayStation Wrap-Up and Xbox Year in Review. It can be exciting, and sometimes surprising, to see a summary of the number of games played, the game most played, total hours played, and the number of achievements or trophies unlocked, and social media often becomes filled with people sharing their PlayStation andXboxstatistics.

Not surprisingly, Spencer’s most-played game isStarfieldwith 148 hours played, followed closely byDiablo 4andPillars of Eternity.Back in August, the Xbox CEO revealed that he had already completed15 playthroughs ofStarfieldand logged over 200 hours, though that was before the game officially launched in September.
