Horizon won the UK and Zelda one Japan. Crazy that guerilla of all developers could release a new Ip and their first RPG to rival the sales of a household name like Zelda.

Not when you consider the install bases... lol

The fact Zelda is one of the only in demand launch Switch games means it's going to have a crazy high attach rate.  

 

Winning for Horizon wasn't guaranteed.  We knew Zelda would sell well.  But did we know a first attempt of an RPG by guerilla games of all devs could beat that?  Definitely not.  Horizon WW must have beat Zelda by a lot.  Sales probably around 3m by now.  Definitely way above expectations.
