Crazy sales, and deserving of every single one.

Very good numbers! I’ve only played the PS4 version of the original myself. For curiosity’s sake, does anyone know any ballpark estimates for how each part of the series has sold? IE, the original, part 2, and the remake separately?

The original and the remaster combined surpassed 20mil in October 2019 like that graph in the OP shows and part 2 surpassed 10mil I think last year.

I think the people that made the graph misunderstood something as the 37 mil that was announced in december definitely included Part II, yet the text makes it sound like its only combining the different versions of the first. Either way it's solid numbers though and neither Part I or Part II are gonna stop selling anytime soon.

In terms of official data the last updates we got for each were:

  • The Last of Us - 8.15 million as of May 2019
  • The Last of Us Remastered - 11.78 million as of May 2019
  • The Last of Us Part II - 10 million as of June 2022

No data for Part I yet.

All of that adds up to 29.93 million, leaving 7.07 million unaccounted for (up to Dec 2022). They'll all have benefited from that 7.07 million of course, but to varying degrees (3 and a half years of sales for a very old original & fairly old remaster; 6 months for the newer Part II; and the launch quarter for the brand new Part I).

By the way did LastofUs break the curse of video game adaptions always being bad movies? Or does TV shows with high production value not count hah.

Mortal Kombat and Silent Hill broke that curse years ago.

It's sold copies, not players.
