There were a lot of big releases after these titles. God of War Ragnarok sold 15m in its first year, Helldivers 2 sold 15m in 10 months and Spiderman 2 sold 11m in 6 months. Wish we'd get updated figures for these games. Spiderman 2 was the 8th best selling playstation game in November (USA) so 1.5 years after that 11m figure it's still selling. Wolverine will be very big, but I'm not certain it'll do better than these. |
I'm excluding Helldivers because it launched on PC but I think it will be bigger than Spiderman or equal at least... Didn't know Ragnarok did 15m in it's first year though. In my head Spiderman and OG GOW are still Sonys sale pinnacles but we don't have updates to know.
Ironically part of my feeling is that Wolverine will actually benefit from being a game which feels sandwiched between both Spiderman and God of War. Story and reception wise I don't think the spiderman series has the same pull as God of War, but equally GOW is not as approachable or recognisable as Spiderman. I think (and hope) Wolverine will benefit from both. Need to see more of the gameplay of course but I'm anticipating it could be their crowning achievement. Even just on a technical level I think it will really blow people's minds.
