Does it count downloads (from gamepass) or just full price copies sold digitally?

If this is just sales, then wow.... Sea of theives beating Farcry 5 is crazy good for SoT.

gamepass isnt included just sales.

Its beating fortnite too... damn.



Around the Network

All I hear about this game is how fun it is.
Then reviews came in and it was the heavily criticised. Still, all people told me to play it, because it was so much fun.
It got very decent twitch numbers and a 2 million player base within a week.

Now it seems to be doing well saleswise AND obviously pushing gamepass subscriptions. It will not be remembered as the best game ever, but I think it was a success for Microsoft.



Imagine not having GamePass on your console...

If this is so, Microsoft and Rare need to get hard at work building upon Sea of Thieves.



Hold on, I don’t understand. A Way Out is also ahead of FC5, so doesn’t this just indicate FC5 sold poorly specifically on the MS store? I doubt A Way Out came even close to outselling FC5 in the US or UK.
