Too low for USA and too high for RoW. If the game is as good as what people want it to be then it should at least sell 2 million in the USA. If so it should get close to 1 million RoW, and get a LTD around 3 million. But MS does need to show the game some marketing love, otherwise it might end up getting lower sales than it deserves like Sunset Overdrive, which still hasn't quite cracked 1 million after more than a year, though with digital it almost certainly has.

I can see it doing 2ml lifetime in the US. But this game seems like a game that would do better in EU and other parts of the world than in the US. Now if it gets bundled i can see the game doing 2.7-3m by the end of the year but for now ill stick with 2.25m by years end. 

Sure, attach rate-wise it may well do better outside the USA. But the USA accounts for such a huge proportion of Xb one's install base that you pretty much only have a handful of racers and Fifa that do numerically better outside the USA. Tomb Raider is the only exception to that rule, which is kinda hard to explain, since the TR remaster did better in the USA. If QB is only good enough to do 1 million in the USA it won't do better than 750K outside the USA.
