Arkham Knight exceeded sales of 2011's Batman: Arkham City. Additionally, the NPD report notes that the PlayStation 4 version of Arkham Knight "had the highest sales for a single SKU across any Batman game since NPD has been tracking the industry." |
So basically that means it beat Arkham City on 360. I have no idea how much NPD says Akrham City sold on 360 back then but VGC has it at 681K. However VGC combined Arkham City games for Oct 2011 is only 1.32 million, so it's almost 200K short. I would think at least 100K of that 200K shortfall would go to 360 which would make 360 ~781K. So from NPD we can be pretty sure that PS4 AK > 780K without bundles counted --> Xb one + PC <470K, given AK<MKX LTD (~1.25M). 780K PS4 ~65% of 1.2M. So seems like 65%PS4/35% Xb one +PC is about right. I assume we can almost ignore PC physical sales since the game was totally broken on PC and hardly anyone buys PC games physical anyway so probably <1% is PC.
