[StiLteD]

No surprises in any of that.

 

[Noobie]

Crash has taken the place of GTA. Always there.

 

[Dash Kappei]

GEEZ I WONDER WHO

 

[Jarod McChicken]

I haven't seen this German September charts before, that's another encouraging ranking for Dragon Quest XI. Probably not the best it could have done (that would have been one rank higher above Mario Kart 8) but those are without Steam and PS4 digital sales.

 

[Bruno MB]

This was a good week for the retail market in the UK, close to 1 million games sold.

Red Dead Redemption 2 has debuted selling close to 600,000 units.

All these figures are extrapolated to 100% of the market.

 

[mazi]

super mario party is pretty steady

Crash has taken the place of GTA. Always there.

it's really impressive. i wonder if spyro will come close to crash's performance

 

[Bruno MB]

Crash Bandicoot N.Sane Trilogy will eventually reach 1 million units at retail.

 

[CerealEnthusiast]

Curious to see what's the split for RDR2

In the U.K it was 68% for PS4.

 

[Kolbe1894]

Did FH4 went up or drop less than others this week.

 

[MrTired]

Click to shrink...

Up 50%

Elsewhere, Forza Horizon 4 rose up a place to No.4 with a 50% sales improvement week-on-week. This was driven by Xbox One retail bundles that also included a copy of Red Dead Redemption 2.

So XB1 share is in the low 30's again even for Red Dead

We’ll never really know because we don’t know what the digital breakdown looks like.

 

[Rogue_Espada]

When will they announce the digital sales numbers ?

I'm curious, do you think it's going to change that ratio significantly?

Never. UK charts will start including them next year.

Even if we did I doubt it would make much difference. I’m pretty shocked at the split tbh, I expected it to be way closer, more like cod split.

Still never, they may release PR when it hits a milestone but they won't breakdown physical/ digital sales split.

Both consoles have bundles with RDR

Nothing stops this Bandicoot @[email protected]

 

[noyram23]

Man Xbox One have it tough this gen, UK is one of their strongest market. I'm guessing 60%+ is a given split for PS4 outside of COD and other known fps. All that Xbox X being the best version and price cuts probably just affected a niche circle, like Era, marketing deals and ads are still the king especially for a SP focused game like RDR2

 

[bombshell]

In the U.K it was 68% for PS4.

Click to shrink...

Damn!

That's on the high end for UK splits (excluding Japanese games). The PS4 TV ads doing work.

 

[Papertoonz]

Crash is never gonna stop is he

man it's great to see it do this well for this long after all those years of nothing

 

[MrTired]

I think it shows how well associated COD still is to the Xbox brand thanks to the success of the 360.

 

[AceofSpades]

In the U.K it was 68% for PS4.

Click to shrink...

and when you factor overall WW split the percentage can only go up for PS4. Impressive for PS4 and Sony.

An unofficial bundle with relatively minimal advertisements is no comparison with an official bundle that's been on sale and marketed heavily for over a month.

 

[MrTired]

What? It's RDR2's split.

Click to shrink...

Talking about the CoD split. It nearly inline with the hardware split which 57/43 as of March.

I wasn't sure what you meant in relation to my post, but yeah COD splits are the tightest probably for the reason you stated.

Yet the bundles was major drive in the 50% sales improvement in FH4.

[aspiring]

Click to shrink...

Wow. Think 50% bump for Forza with bundles. Those bundles also included Red Dead. And PS4 was still 68%.

So in my brain at least it makes me wonder had MS not had these bundles with red dead, would the split have been larger? I wonder what the split was just retail no bundles. Guess we will never know.

 

[BladeoftheImmortal]

Why would anyone think rdr2 would sell higher on xb1 than PS4?

I do think the Xbox version will do great in the states...

 

[kadotsu]

Why would anyone think rdr2 would sell higher on xb1 than PS4?

Because some people are under the delusion that mainstream audiences religiously check Digital Foundry before they buy a 3rd party title.

 

[bombshell]

Why would anyone think rdr2 would sell higher on xb1 than PS4?

Didn't you know X is the best version and there's a giant thread here with people making a huge deal about it? As if the general public cares.

 

[MrTired]

Why would anyone think rdr2 would sell higher on xb1 than PS4?

Click to shrink...

No one thought that, people thought the ratio would be closer to the hardware split due to how mainstream the game is.

 

[Acquiescence]

Why would anyone think rdr2 would sell higher on xb1 than PS4?

Click to shrink...

Because everybody is an avid reader of Digital Foundry now.

 

[Rosur]

Forza Horizon is holding nicely behind FIFA and COD.

 

[Nightengale]

A large majority of the current-gen install base...

don't own an X or a Pro.

 

[RestEerie]

Why would anyone think rdr2 would sell higher on xb1 than PS4?

because native 4k is the bomb and anyone that plays RDR2 below Native 4k should be ashamed.....................apparently. /S

Literally no one has said this. But it is glourios in native 4K just so you know.

Now I'm curious who are these people who thought Xbox SKU would outsell the PlayStation SKU.

Don't name names just link to thread.

 

[-girgosz-]

Nobody ever said that lol. The install base was 57-43 this march. Some of are just curious why most Xb1 games shares are in the low 30's or even 20's

yes...obviously. So is game *insert game title* on the most expensive machine that game *insert game title* is on. Why wouldn't it when it's running on the most expensive & highend machine?
