The most hyped game of the year is also proving to be one of the most successful. Elden Ring, which we’re going to assume most of you have heard of, has had another sales update thanks to Bandai Namco’s financial reports for the end of the 2021 fiscal year. As of March 31, it had sold 13.4 million units, as reported by industry big brain newsbot Nibellion on Twitter.
This represents around 1.4 million sales in a two week period since the 12 million reported after the first two weeks. This was already a ludicrous record, as it took multiple years for previous games in the Souls/Sekiro/Bloodborne triumvirate to reach those sorts of milestones. At a rate of a million every couple of weeks, it’s very likely Elden Ring has passed the 15 million milestone in the time since.
