PlayStation Games Sales Numbers Leaked (Bloodborne and Days Gone 7.5 million etc)

[On Demand]

I really like Death Stranding but it's a hard game to pitch to any publisher, it's impressive Sony went for it even when accounting for Kojima's name.

"A game where you make deliveries in a barren post apocalyptic world, with very little combat, mechanics revolving around balancing your cargo, a bunch of expensive Hollywood actors, full blown AAA production value."

Andrew House was key. He respects Kojima a lot. Kojima said he only explained the game for a couple minutes to him and he said ok. Said that otber companies would have took longer and you would have to explain a whole lot more to them including budget and other things

Time stamped (1:53:33 if it doesn’t work or just open in YouTube)

By the way, watching that made me really miss PSX and E3 stage shows. Sony showed off so many games at these places and the energy was always fun having in person crowds and people talking on stage.

Sigh.

The Last of Us Remastered was bundled for more than 5 years. The sales are very inflated.

It was not. LMFAO.

 

[sugarbetik]

TLOU remastered avg unit price is - $21.6

 

[Danja]

It was not. LMFAO.

It was without a doubt the most bundled game of the PS4 generation

Yep, you can tell from the revenue it generated. Only $402 million after selling over 18 million units which is equivalent to Kirby and the forgotten Land total revenue numbers.

The Last of Us Remaster sold as much as Uncharted 4 almoust 20m.

Even as a big fan of TLoU Part 2, I have to admit the bold/controversial direction they took the series did cost them a lot of sales given that TLoU Part 2 won't ever sell nearly as much as the original TLoU.

TLOU R is the 2nd release of the game.
TLOU Part 2 will receive the 2nd release.

At same timeframe… launch aligned… TLOU2 sales are higher than TLOU.

With the 2nd release TLOU2 will probably be over 15 million in a year or two.

Look at the Sell-through and Net sales.


Last of Us Part II
9.6 million
447 million

Uncharted 4
18.6 million
585 million

Last of Us Remastered
18.2 million
402 million

Uncharted 4 sold 374k more copies and has made 183 million more dollars than The Last of Us Remastered

June 2020

1. Marvel's Spider-Man
2. God of War
3. Horizon Zero Dawn
4. Last of Us Part II

Last of Us Part II surpassed Horizon Zero Dawn the following month.

2018 chart

God of War made the LTD PS4 list as of September 2018. Uncharted 4 and Last of Us Remastered are nowhere to be found despite selling more than 12 million copies at this time.

Spider-Man made the list in October or November. Since NPD doesn't count bundles, we can see how bundles increased the volume of sales.

NPD didn’t track digital for years into the life of the PS4. TLOU Remastered wasn’t bundled for five years like you claim, and your Welfare-level numerology hokey-pokey there is a laughable case of starting with a conclusion and misrepresenting the numbers to try to support an invalid claim.

I’m sure your engagement is awesome, though!

Death Stranding being 2nd to last sounds about right for how I perceived that game to do. That man also ushered in the horrendous PC port trend thanks to making Decima easier for HZD to port.

Detroit deserves a sequel but we all know that ship has sailed.

Days Gone was released in 2019 and it was bundled with The Last of Us.


This is why their Net sales are lower than games that sold around 10 million copies.


This is ZhugeEX talking about the chart (which states it also includes digital sales)

How would you explain the Net Sales being lower than Last of Us Part II when it sold 9 million copies less? Either discount or bundles.

I just noticed MLB the Show has an avg unit price of $116 those microtransactions are no joke

how did GoT: DC get an ASP of over $70?

how did GoT: DC get an ASP of over $70?

I think its a mix of both standalone game purchases as well as the director's cut DLC that was $20 on its own if you already had the game

Quick Rough Breakdown to easily compare a title considered undoubtedly successful versus one some argue against.

As of Feb 2022:
GOW 4 - 21m Units - 597m USD
$28.43 PPU

TLOU2 - 10.3m Units - 447m USD
$43.4 PPU

Shows GOW 4 was bundled like crazy hence the lower PPU. Or sold at low price as well but people did claim that about TLOU2. Wrongly now it seems.

Likely Part 2 is now ahead in Net Sales USD and only behind in Unit sales a lot of which would be due to the millions of bundles it didn't get. I'd now estimate with Part 2s strong 2022 and early 2023 it's in an around 15 million units but that's a pure guess of course.

A lesson learnt for everyone anyway. Unit sales never told near the full story.

We are looking at some games having a bundle percentage over 20%.

 

[Darth Vader]

No! This is what you said which is what I originally replied to. I don't care that you changed your tune after your comment was questioned

I should have clarified that in that one instance I was not talking about old sales data, but rather the latest numbers we have. But sure, you're right.

Only jackass here is you. You insinuated I'm being fictitious and attempting to low ball the figures to make the game look like a flop.

This such a waste of my time .

Enjoy your made up figures

And I didn't call you a hater, jackass.

Im looking at this data and think about it

How uterly meaningless and pointless all these word is

PPU certainly has meaning

PPU certainly has meaning

Really dont care if games like gow were bundled at $560 it means the games in priced accordingly

The tables shows everything we need to know

Honestly youre not doing yourself any favor botboy
