Forums - Sales Discussion - Monster Hunter World Ships 5mil!

It will be very interesting to see the sell-through and digital sale rate, but overall this is pretty great. I suspect Capcom planned to ship a large shipment so that they didn't have shortages (they did anyway), so it'll be interesting to see. 

Either way, these are all sales for Capcom's end of things so it's great!

Must've been all those hundreds of Twitch viewers.

it feels like the game was announced just yesterday.



CPU: Ryzen 7950X
GPU: MSI 4090 SUPRIM X 24G
Motherboard: MSI MEG X670E GODLIKE
RAM: CORSAIR DOMINATOR PLATINUM 32GB DDR5
SSD: Kingston FURY Renegade 4TB
Gaming Console: PLAYSTATION 5

I may have to bump my prediction up from 10 mil LT to 12 or 14.



and its been sold out alot of places.....

I remember people saying "2m lifetime, since its not on a nintendo handheld".
Time to eat some Crow.

My guess is 80% of the sales are going to be PS4. Brilliant to see it’s shipped so many, I had some hours on this over the weekend and it really is a good game.

How much do you expect it to sell on each platform.



Now that might put a possible damper on my prediction.

I mean why would they even bother now?

I'm thinking 2 million on PS4, less than 500k on xb1 and PC is the wild card. Either way I kinda doubt it will beat mh4

2 mil PS4
.5 mil XB1
.5 mil PC
Calling it now. It won't flop, but it will fail to meet expectations.

This franchise has no appeal in the west, the amount of people overestimating the success of this game is wayyy too high.

..... snippet cut out.....

The PS4 owners, for the most part, will buy the game but it will reach nowhere near the 5 million mark, the max it will do is 3 million (that's being generous) and a large chunk of that will be bought by the Japanese owners.

Final verdict:
PS4: 2.5 million
Xbox One: 0.7 million
PC: 0.1 million

3.5million across all platforms is realistic.

That said, I don't think it will get that high. 2-3 million is my estimate.
