We wont know and MS have no interests in telling anyone. There business model is pro digital and online and play anywhere. We can say that SoT gamers are Gold Members and 5m different accounts to play a game is still a lot. Come and go gamers maybe but I wouldn't say majority would sign up for GamePass just to unsubscribe over one game. SoT brings them in and other games keep them to stay. Its a smart business model. As for how many games it actually sold? Well I have been logging in the past few days and I see players everywhere. To me that's more important that actual sales that doesn't add to the community. |
They being pro digital doesn't make the concurrent players irrelevant.
Most SoT probably have Gold (and Gold is probably over 15M users anyway, which would make at least the interest in SoT high considering the userbase for it).
And I didn't say people only subscribed to see one game, but that there may be a lot of testers who downloaded it and a lot of other games.
You have the game, check your achievements for things that take at least 10h to get or 20h and tell us how many percent got it and we may have an idea of how many people played it significantly.
