Looks like it topped off at 61K today!
So thats like what 70-80k ish, people on PC bought it day1?
Closer to 400-500K day 1. With online games it usually is x3 to x4 on launch day concurrent players vs purchased. If we check Palworld they had 5m sold with 1.5m concurrent. I'd assume the discrepancy is higher with single player games. Closer to 6x to 7x. People all over the world don't play at the same time nor have 10 hour sessions.
Seeing how it remains 1st place on top sellers won't doubt it sell a million in its first weekend on PC platforms.
No, it’s hundreds of thousands. Thats people playing all day round, during Asian times, European, and American.
