Halo 1 Remake total sales

Under 10 million 20 76.92%
 
10-15 million 3 11.54%
 
15 to 25 million 2 7.69%
 
25 million > 1 3.85%
 
Total:26

I go with somewhere between 2.5 and 4.5 million at best.

For two reasons:

One, the sheer amount of very good and also yet to be released competition (for everyone's time and money).

Two, I sense a growing fatigue towards full priced remakes that already had their full priced remakes/remasters.

(And maybe 3rd: It's no next-gen Halo.)

Big games today just sell more in general than they did say in the 7th gen; back then you were doing well if you sold say 4-5 million copies of your latest blockbuster, now first party heavy hitters routinely crack 20m, so it will get a boost from that and from PS players who were Xbox players back in the day before jumping ship, and some who just want to see what the fuss is about.

More than anything that's digital discounts almost completely supplanting the pre-owned and rental markets which were a bigger deal in the 7th generation. And back with ps2 and gamecube personally the only games i would usually ever get brand new were the greatest hits/player's choice reprints.



Under 10 million, but probably above 5 million because it's on Xbox, PC, and PlayStation.
I don't think Halo is making a comeback, not in the short-term.



Lifetime Sales Predictions 

Switch: 161 million (was 73 million, then 96 million, then 113 million, then 125 million, then 144 million, then 151 million, then 156 million)

PS5: 122 million (was 105 million, then 115 million) Xbox Series X/S: 38 million (was 60 million, then 67 million, then 57 million. then 48 million. then 40 million)

Switch 2: 120 million (was 116 million)

PS4: 120 mil (was 100 then 130 million, then 122 million) Xbox One: 51 mil (was 50 then 55 mil)

3DS: 75.5 mil (was 73, then 77 million)

I’m curious why the polling options are so optimistic? If it releases Day One GPUltimate, then I don’t see how it could possibly manage >10mil sales across PS5 and PC alone. Not even with a major discount.



Guess im just used to seeing such huge numbers for games these days I got carried away

Considering the price of gamepass has risen significantly for the tiers with day one releases it will probably have a lesser effect on future game sales than in the past. But yeah under 10m being the base prediction is very high.

Honestly if this campaign only remake managed to actually sell 10m copies I'd consider that a big success lol.



I don't think it has much chance of passing 10 million unit sales. The vast majority of Xbox players will be playing it on game pass. It will probably need to sell something like 8 million between PlayStation and Steam to pass 10mm total. That seems like a pretty tough ask for a remake, even for a big franchise like Halo.
