They published MLB 21, GOT Director's Cut and Legends for PS4 in 2021, so that's something. The pic has a lot of niche games missing tho, stuff like No Heroes Allowed VR and Déraciné come first to mind. Also, the Nioh games shouldn't be there.

Imagine sales when it hits PC. (And inevitably other platforms m once the exclusivity deal goes away)

I'm loving the game. The OST alone is GOAT.

Well done on the sales SE considering they were apparently scared at pre-order numbers

Yeah everyone is really enjoying FF7 Remake on their xbox once the exclusivity deal ended over a year ago...

Have you only been gaming for a year?

Pc and Xbox gamers are playing yakuza/persona/kingdom hearts games

Shit we are even getting the OG MGS on switch soon.

All games (that aren't first party) eventually come to all platforms, especially with a pub like square Enix.

It's pointless arguing. That's console warrior list war shit.

Well the biggest issue will be most likely them hitting EGS first.

But if it goes on steam being so graphically intense it'll sell like hotcakes. Pc gamers will buy just to benchmark, most probably won't even play the game long

They have to keep the momentum going for the rest of the year if they want to join the big brands in PS Family. That said I hope with this success they have a base for the next entries and focus on the strengths without resetting all over again every single fucking element. Build up from here!

Congrats, well deserved!

It's weird to don't see Horizon Forbidden West in the list: the first Horizon sold over 20M until now and Forbidden West had a better launch. In addition to this, GT7 also had the best launch in the series (one multiple games selling over 17M when wasn't that usual to get big discounts and quick price drops) so also I assume that like FW may had best launch numbers than one or two games of the list.

Maybe this is a fan made list with only publicly announced numbers?

Well, I can only comment on the quality of the game and I must say after about 7 hours, it's definitely a hit with me. And that's not something that I have been able to say since final fantasy 12 and subsequent to that final fantasy 10. Initially it was good but has grown on me as I've got a little bit more acquainted with the battle system and using the abilities I've unlocked. The story has ramped up and I'm definitely engaged in what is going on. There seems to be a little bit more purpose in this story versus 12. And I dig the whole concept of the game not necessarily needing to be open world as the areas are more than big enough and I like the tightness of them and you Traverse from area to area like a traditional level based game except the areas are pretty huge. You can tell this game is punching a little bit above its weight class in terms of graphics as well because when things get really hectic the system keeps up but there has to be some dips into the twenties during certain cutscenes which honestly are not that distracting considering there's so much going on the screen. Solid performer and I suppose it doesn't surprise me to see the sales but it does please me to see the good start.

Horizon and GT7 are on PS4, so aren't counted as PS5 exclusive.

Doesn’t really say much when there are so few Ps5 exclusive games. Being the 6th fastest selling PlayStation exclusive overall is way more impressive.

Good on Square! Game looks great.

Can you see it jimbo, you don't need fucking gaas and 34 multyplayer projects, single player games still smash asses.

Unfortunately you can make billions just selling skins and shark cards for basically 0 development effort. Sure beats making millions after 5 years of development cycle all whilst pouring tons of resources into the project, only to repeat the process with all its risks again.
