Forums - Sales Discussion - Prediction: God of War PS4 will sell 10M+

According to VGChartz God of War 3 has sold 6.50M (all versions combined + only retail). That's very similar to Uncharted 3 which sold 6.84M according to VGChartz. And now we have Uncharted 4 on PS4 which is at 9.82M right now and guaranteed to do 10M+. That's a huge boost from the PS3 Uncharted games and so I am expecting the same boost to happen to the God of War series. I predict that God of War will become the best selling game in the series and that it will do 10M+ lifetime. Seriously guys, God of War is going to be one of the biggest exclusives of 2018 (if not the biggest one) mark my words! :P

GoW3 hapenned a long long time ago. The last in the series actually was GoW ascention which sold way less and was also a very inferior game. Maybe the series lost a lot of fans over time and with the latets release. Uncharted 3 was release by the end of PS3 era.
I would shoot for 8 million retail + digital, but it could reach 10 million.
But dont think it will be uncharted level of success.



I don't think it will sell better then Horizon and I don't think Horizon sold 10 milion, so I think you are a bit off. But I am sure it will do big numbers.

You are being quite optimistic, I like it... I think 6-8M range is more probable.

Azzanation: "PS5 wouldn't sold out at launch without scalpers."

10min+ will be hard to reach, but 8 even 9 would be great and i think one of these numbers will be correct. I don't know why people underestimate this game. Gameplay from E3 2016 reached 19 mln views and its one of the most anticipated games of this year.

People will be surprised how well this game will sell.

GoW>> Lobo

It's going to sell around 8 mil. I hope for a strong launch week considering there won't be many games releasing in april. 2 mil FW possible?



I hope it for the game. Games with high development costs, a lot of hard work and attention to detail deserve it! Its my first God of War in april then, look forward to it :) its pre ordered now.



It will be the best selling God of War title, 6-8m.

10m is pushing it imo.

Well Uncharted 4 in first week sold in 2.7mln and so far it's the biggest Sony's IP in current generation. 2mln is very possible, and from leaks GoW will be have biggest marketing campaign in Sony's history and even bigger then Uncharted.

It will definitely sell better than Horizonbut not 10 million. 6-7m is my guess, which is still big for God of War.

But Horizon's probably at 6m+ already...

"A good example of that is the break down of sales for PS4’s Horizon Zero Dawn. As of April 30, more than 3.4 million copies of the game have been sold. Of those 915,000 were digital sales, according to PlayStation."

With VGC figures even if we assume it sold zero digital copies since the 915k figure was released it's at 5.2m as of December 2nd.
