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

Ya its possible, the gameplay changes can possibly get the more traditional 3rd person action gamers (Uncharted, Last of Us) to buy it along with bundles.

8 million might be a safer bet but 10 million wouldnt surprise me.

The narrative and the storytelling, then, if the gameplay being compared bothers you.  

That's fair. I suppose it was a hasty reaction but I really don't get the gameplay comparisons between the two.

Well it's what they're banking it selling on.  Interest in GoW as a HnS has waned, so they'll be placing their eggs in the story/narrative heavily.  

Personally, I don't care for how close the camera is.  The gameplay looks a little slow/unexciting, much like FFXV but people seemed to like that too;  I wish I could see what they see.

The combat scenes don't look slow at all but the walking parts...yeah. Hack n slash games don't sell so I can see why they wanted to shake things up.



I'm guessing 5-7M

This will sell around 8-10. This is a completely different game than the first. There are "sidequests" and the game is roughly 4x as long.

According to VGChartz God of War 3 has sold 6.48M (all versions combined + only retail).

You sure? VGC is telling me it sold 5.61m

Game Console Publisher Total Sales
God of War III
Read the review
Sony Computer Entertainment 4.81m
God of War III Remastered Sony Computer Entertainment 0.78m
God of War III Remastered Sony Computer Entertainment America 0.02m

And that would include double dipping on the remaster too, something that Uncharted 3 didn't have, so it's really not comparable. I can't see it selling 10m+ It wouldn't surprise me if it didn't even do 5m.


I included God of War Saga sales (which is God of War 1/2/3). 
But I didn't realize there was a second God of War 3 Remastered SKU on PS4 (that one with 0.02M). This would put it at 6.50M. 



Absolutely clueless on so many levels lol!

Uncharted 3 sold 12.17m then. If you're going to include the trilogy sales for GOW 3 then it's only fair to do the same for Uncharted...


But the Uncharted Collection was on PS4. A platform where Uncharted 3 never was available before. And it included two other games (Uncharted 1 and Uncharted 2) which where also new to the Playstation 4. God of War Saga released on PS3, a platform where God of War 3 had already been available. And both God of War 1 and God of War 2 were also already available on PS3 with the God of War Collection. So basically God of War Saga targeted a much smaller audience than the Uncharted trilogy on PS4.

But I see your point, it's just a matter of how you want to compare both of them.
