This game is amazing and deserves all the success it gets

I think something that's pretty interesting is that the Steam version of the game sold more than Xbox. Might be due to the physical sales.

Depending on your definition of Asia: None, or the Middle East.

I think the A stands for Australia (and New Zealand)?

I doubt it. PC has a big souls following though I know this isn't exactly a Souls proper game.

Holy shit

The second A is for Asia, judging by Galv's post above it refers to India here.

EMEA is "Europe"; "Middle-East"; "Africa".

Sure, but if you look at the acronym in this thread, it's EMEAA, which includes Asia at the end after Africa.

Still legit surprised Activision published it, I wonder if they are trying to diversify what they publish rather than rely on COD at this point?

Okay, I missed India there. I think someone else explained it this way some time ago, also referring to old PAL regions and stuff. And somehow it is the only way how Australia and New Zealand fit in there. Australia, New Zealand and India are in the Commonwealth, so maybe they should have went for EMEAC ;-).

I'm so happy by Fromsoft's success. True leadership and vision in game design
