Really good coming from Japan. Even better than God of War right?



By comparison here's what other PS4 exclusives did first week.

Uncharted 4 - 128k
Spiderman - 125k
Horizon Zero Dawn - 117k
God of War - 46k

They hate Kratos.



i think this will easily hit 5-8m



Wow this is way better than I ever expected it to sell in Japan, amazing to see this game is a success worldwide!

That's great! Japan always had love for Spider-man back in the days, Just Youtube Japanese Spiderman :)

Not really. God of War was just a rated 'Z' game by CERO standards, and that means that stores for the general public couldn't really advertise for it.

Good stuff for Spidey. Curious to see if its sales are completely front-loaded or if it'll have a decent second+ week as well.



The game will do 5 million in the first month

Nice. I've seen a lotta Japanese people online streaming and sharing screens, An odd property for the Japs to ride on, though.

Don't use the term "Japs". It has a history of being used as a pejorative during WWII.

 

Spider-Man is fairly popular in Japan actually. He is after all the most popular superhero in the world.

Please Watch/Share this video so it gets shown in Hollywood.

After seeing uk and Japan numbers 4m+ FW is looking more and more likely. Digital is always growing for these big ps4 games and I'd like to think spiderman will have a better ratio then gow digitally.
