"Just five people in the UK will have the chance to embark on the ultimate adventure into the unknown to celebrate the launch of the latest instalment of the epic blockbuster franchise which has sold a staggering 43 million copies worldwide since launch in 2001"

Amazing numbers for such a great series!

Gonna be 50+ by years end :)

franchise would be overtracked here then, even if you take halo wars out of it.

Well deserved sales indeed.


And that's probably excluding all digital Halo 3 and Halo Wars sales (which should be respectable). Even when going by VGChartz sales a few more million units are sold. So yeah, I definitely think it will pass 50 million before 2013.

Edit: @Spurge  That's a good question.

CONGRATS!!! I really love the Halo games except Reach.

Overtracked here .

VGC: 45,85m
VGC (without Halo Wars): 43.68m

* VGC doesn't count digital or pc sales *

Edit - Fixed removing the mappack.

My favorite fps, this is good news.

finger crossed

I bet it's Reach that is heavily overtracked.

If you're interested in digital copies bundled with the console, then yes perhaps. But not the physical copies aren't.

It sold over a million in digital sales....
