As a gamer that doesn't like rogulike games, and isn't really a big first person shooter fan...I really enjoyed this game.
Not that much for a game that has been available through Game Pass and PS Plus Premium. But I guess its a new IP so it is still finding its footing. I appreciate it is an early game that chose to forego the last gen consoles.
Not even Premium, it was available on the mid tier of PS Extra.
Ugh I miss just being able to call it PS Now. The new branding sucks and is confusing.
Congrats, a healthy number. Do we know their expectations? And unfortunately since it mix sells and players on GP we can't have a more precise measurement, but seems good imho.
I imagine expectations weren't through the roof since Arkane games do not historically sell well. But with the game on GP and PS+ it should have good longevity.
Dishonored 1 is Arkane's best-selling game, which was about 7 million IIRC.
Gotcha, and for me the fact they are sharing numbers without any complain or caveat means it reached their target.
One of those games promised for previous gen but never delivered.
Well deserved. I really enjoyed Deathloop
I think the game sold well before it was released on ps extra and gamepass,
Congrats arkhane!
One of the few good devs in the Bethesda family
