5m is exactly what I thought the game was sitting on months ago if we included digital sales. With Halo 5 coming to PC (Rumours) and the amazing MP support that 343 keep delivering on. Halo 5 will no doubt hit 7m+ in its life time. Halo 6 is a long way off still so there really isn't a reason Halo 5 will stop selling anytime soon. PC + X1 versions could exceed up to 10m as a good possibility, I wouldn’t put that past a good Halo game.
Just wanted to add. People seem to be taking these type of things way to seriously. There’s a lot of down playing in these type of threads. Regardless if you want to justify sales to a T. 5m are great numbers for any game. I know there are many in here wanting Halo to be unsuccessfully, I’m sure they were wishing that back in 2000. Halo is a great franchise and 5m and possibly end with a good 7m on X1 alone is quite an achievement since many gamers are boycotting the X1, due to hate and unknown reasons. I will say "Well done Halo 5 for putting the haters to rest, Keep up the good work. 5m are great numbers and I’ll be looking forward to playing Halo 6 in 1 to 2 years’ time."
Halo doesnt seem like a dead franchise now, does it.

The PC version will not sell much if they lock it behind Windows 10 Store.

Think your underestimating brand power here. This is Halo where talking about. Gamers wont care what Store it's on. They would be more then thankful that they can atleast play the game instead of missing out all togother. This will be locked down on Windows 10 Store garenteed, if gamers dont want to bite the bullet and use the simple store then buy Halo 5 on the Xbox One. Its pretty simple really, and the game will sell on PC, it wont outsell the console version but it could possibly add another million ontop of that 5m+.
I predict Halo 5 will end on 7m for X1 and 2m for PC at the end of its life.
