I believe that would actually be their fastest selling game at this point, though I'm not 100% positive.

 

[Gamer17]

Damn .congrats to ssm and Sony

 

[Brodo Baggins]

Awesome, well deserved. This was a really bold reimagining of the series, and it definitely payed off. By far my favorite God of War game, and I can't wait to see where they go from here.

 

[Cess007]

5 millions in a month. Damn!

 

[Toriko]

Holy shit.. LTD of GOW3 already passed in a month!

 

[Jawbreaker]

Holy shit.

 

[Gamer17]

So 10 million is not a such a hard task anymore .maybe even 13 million .

 

[Majiebeast]

And it has plenty of room till Spider-Man to continue selling.

 

[Deleted member 864]

Very well deserved.

 

[chrisPjelly]

B-but single player games are ded tho

 

[Deleted member 14002]

Good for them.

I'm glad a SINGLE PLAYER campaign without MTX did well.

 

[MentalZer0]

10 million this year, easy

 

[Lady Lunalesca]

I choked

 

[Acquiescence]

I don't think GoW3 sold beyond 6 million, so that is going to be some insane franchise growth.

 

[nightstalker962]

Amazing sales.

 

[Kenzodielocke]

5M in a month? Disappointing.

 

[Deleted member 887]

Definitely 10 million by years end.

 

[Joker13]

the fuck? in one month? that's nuts

 

[asd202]

Sold through?

 

[Harris Katz]

Wow... that is incredible! I wonder how many PS4 Pro bundles got moved as a result of this game! I know I upgraded to a Pro for it.

 

[SJRB]

That's crazy. Awesome.

 

[patapon]

Sold through?

[Saint-14]

Sold through?

Sony always reports sold through, I wish they give shipped too because it would look more impressive.

 

[cakely]

Wow, in April? That is actual nuts.

[rusty chrome]

Holy shit that's a lot.

Easily my game of the generation so far, so big congratulations to SSM, it's deserved in every way.

Inc the PS4 release and digital sales? I remember seeing it over 5m but don't believe it includes the above?

 

[Advc]

Single player games stay winning! Heck yes.

 

[Deleted member 1326]

Nice. We could hear 10 million by the 1st anniversary.
Very well deserved, incredible game.

Yeah, especially if they add the game to some bundles during the holiday season.

 

[Stewarto]

Woah, I thought it was 1.5 million and was impressed. 5 million is insane

 

[Strelok]

And I haven't even bought it yet

 

[kowalski]

I'm so happy...like really really happy :D

 

[asd202]

Yup.

So the shipped number would have to be somehwere between 6-7 million. Crazy.

 

[Gurish]

Whaaaaaaaaaat

 

[Elandyll]

5M in a month? Disappointing.

Click to shrink...

"Exceeded" though :)

 

[Vaibhav]

Bigger but fewer games. It has been trend this gen compared to last gen.

Its obvious each one has to sell more than previous gen entries. Also lot of pent up demand cause of fewer games being released.

I don't know about fewer games, my backlog is huge :P

 

[Palette Swap]

I'm genuinely surprised. I expected it to do it well, but not so exceptionally well.

 

[Cordy]

Amazing!!

 

[Jarod McChicken]

Haha, Kodera breaking the usual silence outside of the official PR release from SIE press site. It's nice sometimes to get a little surprise update like this.

[Mr.Gamerson]

Ridiculous! Hopefully, it can leg it to 10 Million by the end of the year.

 

[Deleted member 4976]

Well deserved for my current GOTG.
