Spyro & Pokemon sales decent in the UK, Fallout & Hitman poor, Battlefield V prospects not positive
- Thread starter patapon
- Start date
That's great to hear for Pokemon and Spyro. A shame about Hitman 2 though as it's a neat Stealth game with the new areas being fun to explore around in IMO.
Though I am curious, isn't the game like 50+ GB on PS4 at least? Wonder what corners they're gonna cut to get it on the Switch.
Switch and PC release is very likely in 2019, though an earlier release coinciding with X1 and PS4 would've indeed helped its sales. We'll see if its late release will do well.

Battlefield V isn't even like fully out yet, standard edition doesn't hit until Tuesday so I'm not terribly shocked though I think it'll still struggle a bit.
Haven't seen a ton of marketing, reception feels mixed, beta wasn't the best, and well, we've seen the controversies that have stemmed over the last few months and the revolt against EA since Battlefront 2.

I'll treat these unverified claims as what they are but I"m not surprised about BF 5. The beta wasn't fun and CoD has a decent BR mode so it's a no brainer. I guess I'm not too surprised about Pokemon either since it seems everyone but me is playing it haha.
It's out if you paid the premium moneys. Out next week for regular PEONS.
Oh. In that case, the less said about the Sekiro sales numbers the better.
Wolfenstein 2 is like 48 gigs on PS4 and is on Switch. It's been done before.

Then what are they talking about?
Considering you have to download most of the game on the PS4 they don't really have to do anything. Unless the reports were wrong?
Presumably the sales of the "pay $80 to get it early" version.
The weird-ass pay extra to play an arbitrary number of days earlier depending on how much you paid thing. I'm sure there are a lot of passionate fans ponying up for that version, but I wouldn't take those numbers as ordinary sales figures.
Yeah take out 4k textures and the size will shrink dramatically I should think
Battlefield V deflated any hype right from initial announcement. A shame because the most recent trailer and final release look pretty good.
I'd have to imagine a lot of the "access early" editions of games tend to be digital sales (usually includes digital content like a season pass, and typically the type to buy these editions tend to be among the dedicated base that seems to buy more digitally).
Edit: Oh wait, is it only digitally? So what's the guy even talking about?
Edit 2: It is physical at Gamestop at least.

It has been out for like 9 days for people who subscribe to EA's premium Origin service
Maybe pre-orders are really bad tho
With how much has been shown and talked about regarding Battlefield V I thought it's been out for a month or two. How the fuck is this not out yet?
Ah I didn't know about this. That could explain some things and I'm glad I attempted to take that tweet as unverified rumbling
Asked in the PAL thread, but this one is better suited.
Won't BF5 be 2 weeks worth of sales when it's on the chart? God, I bet the drop from BF1 will be extra brutal if so.

I bought a month of Origin Premier for 15 dollars for Battlefield 5 and it still wasn't worth it.
Good for Spyro and Pokemon. Shame about Hitman 2 as it's really good.
Seems a bit harsh on Battlefield 5 though, as it's only out on early access with the expensive premium version right now, I would think most people will buy the regular cheaper version, so will wait and see how that really does when it's out for everyone.

I said many times here that the exposition of RDR2 was too strong on media compared to other games like Hitman 2.
And many said "no lol it was normal"
Why are all new releases £50? My guess is Brexit is weakening the pound, but I'm sure the end of last gen everything was £35-38.
I want BF5 and Assassin's Creed, but not that much.
