Forums - Sony - Horizon Zero Dawn has sold 3.4 million copies (End of April)! A Whopping 915k is Digital

Horizon Zero Dawn has sold 3.4 million copies (sold-through or sold-in not specified)
Horizon Zero Dawn had sold 3.4 million copies as of April 30. 915,000 of these sales were digital sales (as of April 30). Does not specify if it's total sold-through or sold-in but I would guess sold-through since that's what Sony's past reported PS4 game sales numbers have been.

The last official sales numbers were 2.6 million for its first two weeks.

Comments:
-It isnt specified whether its Sold or Shipped. Most likely the former as otherwise it would mean it didnt have legs.
-Assuming SOLD that means after first 2 weeks it sold 800k (so estimate 10weeks/2months and a half)
-Digital is extremely high, if this is sold thar means its around 30%. And this was by april 30th

"Horizon Zero Dawn," the flagship PlayStation 4 exclusive, has sold 3.4 million copies.

Nice to get official digital sales. That's a 27% digital ratio.



Thats excellent news!And those digital sales are really big.Wonder why this game got this high digital attach ratio.



My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.

I thought it would have done close to 4m, but this is also very good for new IP. So it sold 800k from 12.march to 30.april. With this rate it would do easily over 5m by the end of the year.



Digital will hold more then half of the market in no time look at how fast it went when Steam really started rolling it was done in the blink of an eye.

Great for revenue of console makers, bad for stores selling games but everyone has seen this coming for ages. great to see single player games still selling this well, deserved it judging by the reviews I havn't played it yet as NioH and Persona are still not finished and I play most games on PC but I will pick this up eventually !!

I think we can expect that to be pretty normal going forward.

I do expect that digital sales to increase over time, but this was a rather big jump.But yeah, you are probably right.

I do think that this game can reach 5 million no problem lifetime, and the digital attach rate is amazing, I wonder how much digital sales will have an impact going forward in the future.

Well my prediction is 7 million lifetime. With a holiday bundle it could sell close to 5 million this year alone. As far as new killer exclusives IP's go this gen. This game and Splatoon are probably the prime examples. Perhaps Horizon 2 can cross the 10 million mark on PS5.



Please excuse my (probally) poor grammar

Great sales! Also read on gematsu ps4 sold though almost 60 mill april 30
