Over 2 million between 360 and X1 combined.

With the release of the second Fast & Furious cars pack (FM6 F&F car pack) Horizon 2 becomes the first Forza game to get DLC over a year after its release. Since I'm somewhat of a completionist I'm getting that pack eventually. I the mean time I got ten more cars to take pictures of next time I play it.

Maybe it will be at 2 million before the start of the 2016 holiday season.

Well there ya go, looks like a million has been achieved. The 360 version did better than I expected as well.

This deserves to sell another million, great game.

Not at a million yet but it needs less then 5,000 to get there should be there when the next numbers come in. Including digital copies it made it past 1 million more then a while ago already. The leader board with the highest numbers already has over 1.9 million entries so I'm thinking including digital it closing in on 1.5 million already since some of those entries are from consoles that have multiple accounts and used copies.

It was way too easy to get all the achievements in the F&F standalone DLC. Only played it for a couple of days and since all the cars where added to the main game with this month car pack there really is no reason for me to play it again.

Mr Puggsly posted 06/04/2015, 01:11
I notice one of the leader boards has about 904K players and its still free for about 5 more days. Should be well over a million by then.

The races in this DLC are solid, this should encourage people to get the full game.

Chris Hu posted 11/03/2015, 11:03
Hopefully the F&F DLC will give this game a decent sales boost. Since the highest leaderboard is now over 1.4 million the game has easily sold over a million including digital copies by now. I'm guessing it will sell at least 1 million physical copies by Black Friday. Looking forward to the 11 cars in the F&F DLC and since there will be at least one more car pack I'm looking forward to that also.

Looks like this got adjusted up a bit including digital this probably close to 900K now. This month car pack was kinda weak hoping the free Mazda MX-5/Miata pack comes out soon. Also if there are only two more car packs I'm hoping the two free cars will be the 1992 Bugatti EB110 SS and the 1993 Jaguar XJ220 but I'm hoping there is at least a couple more since I also would like to have the 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona HEMI and the 1990 Lotus Carlton.

And yes, I know that 5,000-4,000 per day is not a %. I also have data for the west speed trap which is less used, the growth rate between the two is fairly equal.

What surprised me the most is how many copies were sold during christmas! The Leaderboards experienced a 135k+ jump in two days.

In case anyone is wondering, these are the leader board numbers, been tabulating the data at 9pm for all of these days. If anything, the data shows a good picture of the actual growth % the game has been experiencing. Roughly 5,000-4,000 per day.

The game has 1,016,135 people on the leaderboard at the first speed point in the game. That doesn't include people who don't have XBL Gold, but it does include used copies/game sharing.

Still, the game is massively under tracked, especially when you consider digital sales.

@Ninsect - That's a claim for Forza 3 from Wikipedia with no source. Either way, Forza generates more money and should have a bigger team than MLB The Show.

Some people are calling this a failure but it easily outsold Sony's MLB 14.

@fireburn95 - Racing games in general aren't as strong as they once were. Refer to Gran Turismo 6.

As long as Forza games can keep selling over a million units, maybe they'll keep making them. Sony keeps making baseball games and those sales are worse.

I just rented this from Gamefly and already put about 5 hours into it, this game is fantastic.

I'll likely play the 360 version later on because I hear the racing events differ. That gives me an excuse to play more Forza Horizon 2.

@darkneal They don't have a reliable way of tracking them yet.

Games publishers can track digital sales just as well as music publishers, since they have access to the sale source (PSN, XBL, Steam etc). VGC is not an official source, so lack access to that data right now.

Games and music aren't really comparable digitally though. Songs only needs a few MB, while modern games need tens of thousands. FH2 is 36GB, over twice the average capacity of an ipod touch. Somewhat slows down the adoption rate :p

3) Game can be rented and played with different accounts on the same console.

@Emperorbach It's overtracked in the US, but not 'massively'. NPD have its combined sales at 120k, and VGC at 140k. Fairly minor in the grand scheme of things.

And it didn't flop. It's certainly not selling well (considering it's on 2 platforms), but this isn't what a flop looks like.

so by that logic you think the sales for a game like beyond two souls is great. Well it's not, it's average. To the man who said digital isn't counted. I obviously know this and it's the same for every game. So relative to other games it's not doing great. BTW the ad campaign was big. It's been on TV constantly for the last 2 weeks.

Yup, I think you're thinking of another game, because it sure as hell wasn't one you're describing.

That was also week one (like 5 days on the market), NA only, and didn't account for digital.

Forza games share content so I imagine that helps keep development cost down. Hope it does as well or better than the first game.

Flop? Um... not really.
As of today it's probably around 375K. Digital also needs to be accounted for as well. Game hopefully will continue to sell through the holidays. Also have to add in the 360 sales. Game's a spinoff of the original, so I'm not sure what people were expecting. I'll say lifetime 1-1.30million (360 Included).

flop? This is spin off that only sold about 37k less on a much smaller install than what the original did. I was expecting around this amount. We need to see how good the legs are first, along with the Halo/Holiday Xbone boost. This game can still reach over 1m lifetime if the legs are decent.
