If you think that's not good, take a look at Anthem, which was way bigger and way more expensive :PWow, isn't that not good for a huge game like The Division 2? Has Ubisoft commented on their overall global numbers for that game?

Wow, thx. Great numbers for DG, wouldn't believe it will beat Anthem.

Switch release in EU was delayed.
Where does it say only PS4? I think it's Xbox and PS4 combined.It outsold MK11 on 4 platforms? wow
edit: only ps4 version. ok

Quantifying the state of the physical market has value. The article is just stating that Days Gone (70k) beat MK 11 (40k) in physical sales, which is a valid comparison."note: digital sales are not included, and download sales have improved significantly over the last four years"
I don't really see the point of sales numbers that don't include digital these days.
Lmao. My son went from World War Z to this with no complaints. Both games not really reviewing well.
Why not report on physical sales regardless if the data is there?"note: digital sales are not included, and download sales have improved significantly over the last four years"

Oh I see
Zombie fatigue is the gaming equivalent of superhero fatigue in movies. You hear that thrown around a lot, but there's no basis to it. It's just people who're angry that they're performing so well in the first place.
This will be their Uncharted 1 to Uncharted 2 moment.Seems like Bend will get the chance to make a sequel, which is good. Hopefully it's better and less flawed than the first game.
On what data are you basing this on? Isn't this the first official data we get regarding the Days Gone performance compared to MK?
This. Sure, including digital would be perfect, but there's still a lot to take from the available sales data of physical games.Why not report on physical sales regardless if the data is there?
Look what that post was replying to. He's talking compared to MK 10, then MK 11 had bigger debut worldwide.On what data are you basing this on? Isn't this the first official data we get regarding the Days Gone performance compared to MK?
Amazing and unexpected result for Days Gone! I'm really surprised it beat MK 11.
This is great news as I am really enjoying the game so far, it appeals to my gaming tastes a lot.
Also the MK11 split towards PS4 is absurd.
Seeing this, God of War even seems rather low. Were people hesitant of the new direction? Reviews were out at time time or not?Sony games launch week in the UK, physical only of course. Horizon Zero Dawn remains the best new IP launch, although 2 years later Days Gone has without a doubt a bigger digital share.

GOW was said to be a rather weak IP in UK.Seeing this, God of War even seems rather low. Were people hesitant of the new direction? Reviews were out at time time or not?
God of War had a way bigger launch than any previous entry in the franchise. So it's more that Spider-Man and Uncharted 4 had an insanely good launch and Horizon had two more days in it's first week.Seeing this, God of War even seems rather low.

a multiplatform fighting game will always favor PS4 and that's the current FGC platform of choice.
It's had a tepid launch but it apparently has great legs thanks to a great wom.Wow, isn't that not good for a huge game like The Division 2? Has Ubisoft commented on their overall global numbers for that game?

PAL charts vote
Which of the 2 new big releases will top the retail UK charts next week?
Results
MK11: 52.9%
DG: 47.1%
I was #teamDG, hell yeah!

Yeah that's for sure. But Anthem was a well documented disaster critically. I'm surprised The Division 2 isn't a big hit based on its reception from both critics and fans.
Open World fatigue was also a common "argument" against DG.........

Nice a confirmationEurogamer confirms what Games Industry failed to mention :
Days Gone is the biggest physical sales launch of the year so far in the UK
Ironically, outside of the Era bubble I'm willing to bet that it being open world and having zombies was a positive as far as most casual gamers go.
