Numbers Discussion V3

Helldivers 2 becomes the 7th highest grossing game Sony published in the US in their entire history... after 2 months on the market. Good start for their live service games era.

That #7 for Helldivers 2 is even more impressive when you realize that it's in dollars amount and not unit sold.
The game is being sold at $40, lots of people bought the game.

Rebirth still 4th best selling title for 2024 despite claims of "poor" sales.

 
The last of us IP has reportedly sold more than 50 million copies since June 2023.

 
That's why live service games are day one, they are more popular on PC.
 
He quoted himself. It's him that clearly says it wouldn't rank in the top 20 without the PC version.
Nothing wrong with that, shows Sony are right to go day 1 pc.

So people are buying it but not playing it? Or are people stopping playing it faster than those buying it? Their numbers of daily players continue to drop.

Maybe farming them interactions ? PC gamers love their live service games.
 
When you take the early paycheck and ignore the biggest PC store you sort of get what you deserve.
