If not, it will be close. I think Breath of the Wild 2 is targeting a late 2020 release, but that won't kill sales of the first game. I predict 25m lifetime for the Switch version of Breath of the Wild. Book it! |
Oh thank you. Will add to OP. Was gonna research this but you got it.
I had very similar thinking as well. That would be monstrous. Worse Quarter is 780k, so if it avgerage 780k for the next 5 quarters (two are holiday) that would put the game at around 18.4mil. Of course itll be most likely more but there. 20mil is the floor now.
Wonder what a sequel could do
