Forums - Gaming Discussion - Killzone shadow fall sells 2.1 million copies

very impressive numbers



Around the Network

Should reach 5.0 mio+ considering ps4 demand and bundles as there won't be many fps competitors in near future
When selling 2mio with 4 mio consoles.
5mio by an 15 mio installbase by end of 2014 is probable maybe 6 mio lifetime(with digital sales)

Wish they'd bundles some 100k vitas with ps4

WOW, massively undertracked here. Amazing sales although I personally was disappointed in the game. Just shows making games at launch does not mean bad sales due to lower install base.

Did you consider this is shipped and not sold?


Still impressive and undertracked.


Yet when Microsoft announces consoles sold/shipped, you say quite the opposite. Ironic. 



Time to bump the kz sf sales prediction thread. I remember some users saying it would hit a million



Not bad considering CoD and Battlefield sort of clog up the market.

Resistance was bundled with every console in Europe for a while


True enough, but the PS4 is also a significantly more promising console than the PS3, and the FPS market increased a lot after Modern Warfare.

Yeah I agree. It might even get to 5m actually, I just hope that inFamous can get this kind of sales numbers

???? An entire console versus software that is still undertracked? How is that even remotely the same? It 's not like I am comparing the shipped numbers of KZ and the sales numbers of another game right?

Well deserved :)

k I know I am me and I reaaaally don't wanna be that guy now, but principle dictates me to say this.

Killzone SF isn't on the same level critically as KZ 3 and especially not KZ2 (the best of the IP by far). Yet it is selling at a faster pace, most likely due to being the sole launch exclusive worth getting.

Now this is great for the developers, no doubt about that. It is like a fresh start to expand upon as PS4 grows. But as fans of the IP....should you really be encouraging this? It is like celebrating COD sales every year, even though the meta score gets lower and lower. Ideally, we should reward quality that also sells amazing.

(if I behave like this when a X1 game scores lower yet sells higher, feel free to call me out whomever reads this).



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles. 

 

Sold to retailers or sold to consumers?

First time for everything I agree with you lol. We all know a lot of it is it being a launch title.  Shadow fall was disappointing imo, although MP is good, but for some reasons reviews graded it solely on SP unlike most shooters.
