The previous 15 million figure for Helldivers 2 was playercount, not sales.

How can a game that isn't free have a bigger number of players than unites sold? Legit asking lol.

Piracy doesn't look to be an option, at least in the sites that I like to check to see piracy numbers.

I don't have much to add to The-Pi-Guy's explanation. The disparity between playercount and sales in older games where physical dominated used to be quite big, but this gradually changed.

When Sony updated their GT Sport figure to 14 million players, I estimated the sales to have been at around 9 or 10 million. But Insomniac's leak had GT Sport selling close to 13 million, not far behind the playercount. I expect a similar difference for Helldivers 2 if not smaller, coz more recent games have higher digital ratios, and the game is also available on PC where it's more popular.
