Well, I don't wanna pick a fight, but looking at the numbers than europe is the only region where Horizon beats Zelda (Switch). If we combine both versions of Zelda, it is long past Horizon, but looking at Switch-version alone it managed to get 2.76M at May 13th (VGC), while Horizon has 2.84M. And that week Zelda sold 70K more than Horizon. So we can assume that by now Zelda Switch has overtaken Horizon worldwide. In europe on the other hand that will probably never happen, Horizon will keep staying in front.

I'm looking at officially announced sales, not VGC numbers. Like I said, in that case, Horizon had sold through (so sold to consumers) 2.6 million in its first two weeks. Doesn't really matter then that VGC's numbers didn't show 2.6 million before an extra week after that, because either VGC is undertracking the game, or digital sales are high. VGC numbers just don't cut it for proper sales discussion, and I'm not saying this to be rude.¨

EDIT: actually the latest confirmed number we have from Sony for Horizon Zero Dawn is 3.4 million, with 915k of that being digital according to Sony themselves. Some of the sources say this number is for april, but some don't specify, so I'm not sure when this is for, but either way it shows VGC numbers aren't good enough, because digital sales are so substantial.

You're aware, that NPD just put Zelda Year to Date in the US above Horizon, with Horizon including digital and Zelda not?
