Power of Playstation Plus!!!

Believe me the game would have never reached this number of people without PS+ and this is no hate, PS+ was a huge tool to this games' success, which will hopefully be longlived.

I'm sure you can supply us with a list of games that were on PS+ on both the PS4 and PS3 that hit 4.5m. Clearly, it's jsut because it's free. I wonder if we'll see the creators of Styx telling us it was downloaded 4.5m times?

Holy god damn shit, that's intense.

They get money each time someone downloads it from Sony to allow them to have it for free on PS+ so it's not the same as a full sale but you got to remember developers (especially indie) are happy as long as they make enough money to live and put food on the table. They're exactic 5 million people are playing their creation.

even more impressive than 2+ million pool nation downloads :D

without kidding: great game. never played it so far, but its fun to watch one twitch

Overrated! These 5 million downloads are just because it was on PS+, has cars, has a ball, has online multiplayer, has split screen co-op, has offline modes, has customization, has PC/PS4 cross-play....
It's just an indie game after all...

That was.. impressive. *claps*

It's not really free those is it ... More like 'rented'.

Sorry, that was last year. My mistake ;)

5m, PS Plus sure helped a lot,which is cool,helps the game get more exposure. Its a fun little game. Got my cousin playing it on his ps4 because i told him its free to try out and he likes it.
