Edit: My bad, you only wish to discuss Elden Ring and not other NPD results today.

But the real question is, who has the better name for a rockabilly star, Elvis Presley or Elden Ring?

I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

“Premium game”? What is a premium game?

They walked this back.

Correction: The NPD previously stated that Elden Ring was among the top ten best-selling games of all time in the US, but has since retracted this statement, clarifying that it was based on an incomplete data set. We have removed the reference to this in the article. https://t.co/fiZB2w8DBI

A mea culpa. Because the ranked charts do not include the full history for all titles and all platforms - across both physical and digital sales - this note was worded too definitively for what is an incomplete comparable universe. I apologize for the lack of clarity in the note. pic.twitter.com/NuSbSmPEam
