6 million. I'm happy inFamous Second Son is out in February : Killzone Shadow Fall will have no one to "battle" and probably will join the Uncharted/God Of War/LittleBigPlanet/The Last Of Us numbers' family. Gran Turismo is too high I think tho..


Isn't Killzone: Shadow Fall battling with Call of Duty: Ghosts and Battlefield 4 in the FPS genre?

I think Killzone: Shadow Fall has a decent chance to join the Uncharted & LittleBigPlanet family, i.e. 5m - 6m but only because of mass bundling. Anything from 4m -6m I reckon but it's hard to say, it depends on how long it remains the bundled AAA exclusive (until inFAMOUS: Second Son probably) and if it's actually a great game with extremely positive word of mouth. I think 4m - 5m is more likely, I voted for 4 million.

Without at least a year (2 holidays) of bundling I doubt it will come close to joining the 6m+ family with GoW3 and TLoU (it's inevitable) which are 2/4 of Sony's only 1st party PS3 exclusives that have achieved (GoW3/GT5) or will achieve (TLoU/GT6) this milestone with very little (TloU) to hardly any (GoW3) bundling. KZ:SF will have a strong launch period (if the PS4 sells very well this year, like 4m+ and KZ:SF has a 1:4 tie ratio) due to the holiday release & bundle but I think it will be a fairly front-loaded game and with similar but slightly better legs after 2014 than KZ2 & KZ3. I'd guess Killzone: Shadow Fall will sell ~1m in 2013, ~1.5m in 2014, ~0.7m in 2015, ~0.3m in 2016, ~0.2m in 2017 and another 0.3m until it stops selling = ~4m lifetime. I doubt any Sony exclusive will ever go near Gran Turismo sales, unless there's a HUGE new IP for the PS4 that joins the 10m+ family, that would be amazing.

I'm hoping for 4 million but I believe it will end up with around 2.5 million. It's just a shame it had to launch against COD & BF4 or I believe the preorders would be significantly higher.


it'll easily make that... the pre-orders it has right now are AMAZINGLY high, it's already higher than KZ3's entire pre-orders, and that was released on a platform with a 50m+ install base



Competition breeds success.

KZ + COD + BF...... gonna be a good holiday for FPS fans



I guess five millions is reachable.. The series has gained more install-base than before.



I think it will sell almost twice as much as the highest selling KZ to date

Well its been announced that this will be bundled so Im upping my prediction to 4 million now.



Best selling KZ game confirmed.... its a launch title plus they're catering more towards a COD crowd now.

lots of former xbox fans who are sick of COD/BF will want to try out KZ
