Guerrilla recruited Simon Larouche (Game Director of R6S) in Feb 2018 for a "secret game" and others Rainbow Six Siege devs
They seemingly have another team on that 2nd (multiplayer?) game while the other team develop Horizon sequel
Incredibly it sold none.
I'm delighted for GG it's a very good game and more than deserved of those sales figures.
One of my favorite games ever, best of 2017 to me. Great to hear that a new IP with a female main character found success, can't wait for the sequel.
A damn fine number for a new ip. With improvement to the melee system, and better Side quests (thought they were fine but nothing spectacular) they have a chance of making one of the best games of all time. The lore and ranged combat were already great so just build on them.
Are you sure, tho?
And HZD2 is bound to sell just as much if not more, even if it isn't bundled.
That's what a commitment to a new IP does to your brand. Seriously GG Sony, Keep making these games and you're aces in my books.

I have a copy thanks to my PS4 bundle. I wonder when I'm going to play it lol
Still nice for the devs.

Potentially made it's money back in the first 2 weeks let alone year. The budget was apparently around €45m. Don't know how much they received from each of those 2.6m sales but it seems a pretty modest budget compared to similar sized games (probably doesn't include marketing though).
Hot damn.
I guess it was really only a matter of when not if it hits 10 million when it shot pass 7 million the first year.
This is easily GG best selling game ever and a brand new IP in a different genre than the studio has been known for (making Killzone for 3 generations in a row since their inception) Killzone is going to be put in the back burner for a while.

They were closing in on 8M even before the price drop so it definitely did plenty.
that's awesome
the sequel is poised to be huge too if they make the proper improvements to the game and get it out within the first year of the PS5

Congrats to GG! Here's to seeing where they take the franchise next. Based on their post-mortem, it sounds like they know which weaknesses to strengthen in the sequel and are intent on doing so.
A damn fine game with some great combat mechanics and a great open world.
but they gotta do something about that snoresville story/dialogue/supporting cast
I too, would wish that Guerilla would make another Killzone. There is, believe it or not, an audience from the PS3 era that finds that series great today!
Like me!

I think Horizon is my game of the generation so far, well deserved GG! Not only is it a phenomenally good looking game, it also has one of the best and most fun gameplay mechanics I've ever encountered.
HZD2 on PS5 will be amazing, if somehow I could play or at least walk through these environments in VR, it'd be even better!

Woah, how did i miss that? That sounds promising. :D
I just did.
A co-op mode atleast. Fighting a super Robots while a buddy sets up an ambush not far away would be real fun.
Amazing! Well deserved. Like I said, it's the best new IP of this gen for me and my GOTY 2017 :)
Horizon Zero Dawn, Uncharted 4, The Last of Us 2, Spider-Man, God of War and Death Stranding will all sell well over 10 million.
What a great achievement by Sony's Worldwide Studios.
(Uncharted 4, Horizon Zero Dawn, Spider-Man and God of War already are well beyond 10 million by now.)

Solid game. 8.0/10. Give the protagonist something resembling an actual personality and the sequel will do even better.
Great game!! Happy for them.
GG are of one of my fav dev teams and thats not because their Dutch like me but their support for HZD has been great and i think Hermen is a great stand up guy

As much as i love Horizon i would buy a new Killzone day 1.
Killzone 2 and 3 were fantastic to great games.
See how much extra you're putting on my post that I didn't say. Don't take "happy for the milestone, but hope they made money" as a put down for something you like. Jesus Christ.
Wow, over 10 million! Didn't realise it sold that well. That's awesome! Lets not forget though female protagonists don't sell! :/
Sooo
I guess this might have outsold the entire KZ franchise?
Amazing result for sure - can't wait to see the sequel

It's a series that never really took off even after being given several chances. If they want to make a shooter it'd make far more sense for them to create an entirely new IP so that they don't have any of the KZ baggage with it.
Most definetly. If they fucked up the combat and story i probably wouldnt even finished it.
They nailed the combat imo. It was incredibly fun to play with and some of the robots were crazy good.
Amazing! Game is an all time favorite, still boot it up just to fight the robot dinos, combat is so good.
Get out of here with this.
I would love a new Killzone with a good story and MP as good as Siege. At 60fps.
