Horizon Zero Dawn sales pass 7.6 Million

http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2018-02-28-horizon-zero-dawn-shifts-a-whopping-7-6m-copies

Well done Guerrilla, fully deserved. The game still have by far the best visuals I ever seen in an open world, it is disbelief to see such a beautiful world in a video game.

To put this into perspective, A new IP from Killzone devs have already outsold big franchises such as MGS 5 (5 platforms); FF15 (3 platforms) and last of us on PS3.

- 50 GOTY awards and 7.6 million sales, it seems sony and guerilla have hit a gold mine.

Can't wait for the sequel( hopefully PS5); if they could create this Behemoth on an 1.8 TF console then imagine a 10+ TF PS5

Great game, it's a must play !

Best overall game of this gen. Well done.

But but so3y only makes cinematic games

But but, Ps4 doesn't have low budget mmo craps

Best new IP since Last Of us, come to come with Spiderman, GOT, Death Stranding.

Thankfully Sony does have the mind set of SW specialists.

Not a bad game

Is that even true?

Exclusives don't sell, new IPs don't sell, singleplayer games don't sell..... LOL

Great work Guerrilla, and totally deserved!

Beautiful game. Well deserve

Heh 7.6M is an odd milestone.

Great game though. It's so good I barely even care that it only runs at 30fps. Nope, not salty at all about it being exclusive to the PS4 hardware.

Well done, now give me sequels and remasters.

sounds a lot good job gaminggods

Woman lead protagonist as well.

And a much longer campaign next time, more side content too.

A new IP from the makers of Killzone outsold Gears 4. Oh how the mighty have fallen.

Great game and well deserve! Hope more developer take chances with new IP!

Phil Spencer: single player games are on their way out...and don't make their money back

look at horizon zero dawn thats exclusive and definitely did everything that phil spencer said was impossible

what a dunce phil get outa the gamers way

haha

He thinks that because every single player game MS makes sucks. Ryse, Quantum Flop, Recore. The only decent one they had was Sunset Overdrive but they didn't advertise it and it had too many colors for the Xbox fanbase.

Where is that dumb Spencer and his statement how singleplayer games are dead?

Best new IP of the generation hands down, made even more impressive when you consider everyone wrote the game off because the 'Killzone people' were making it.

Overrated shite with a ton of motion blur sickness to hide its shite framerate.

Awesome news to hear!!! Horizon: Zero Dawn is still my GOTY and I still enjoy playing it from time to time.

P.S, I was sooo thrill I made Horizon Zero Dawn hype thread last year ^-^

Especially this in an "all feminists are evil" climate.

Good game. Beat it twice but it has a lot of room for improvement.

TLHBO!

“? B...bu...but single player gamez don’t sell, Uncle Phil told me!!1”

“? B...bu...but teh movie gamez!!!1”

“?B....bu...but cowz don’t buy their excluzives!!!1”

Congrats GG and Sony. Keep making these high quality single player IPs while MS continues to release flops like Crackhead 3 and Quantum Fail as they deny that well made SP games can be successful.

Funny thing is that this is only the beginning of the onslaught, games like God of War, TLOU2, Death Stranding, Spiderman, Ghosts of Tsushima, Detroit, etc. are still on their way.

@i_p_daily do you remember the days when Phil Spencer felt that single player games was on a decline, but thanks to Horizon 0 Dawn, you now will have fable 4 :). I am curious, will you be making a thank you thread to Guerrilla Games for the rebirth of the Fable franchise?

@daredevils2k: The dude is a clown. He will eat poop if Phil spencer told him to.

Phil has been feeding him garbage and lies all gen and he has faithfully swallowed it all.

Whoa truly amazing.

1 SP game manages to sell 7 million (That isn't the likes of Mario and friends) and suddenly Phil Spencer is wrong! because of an exception!

Nevermind the fact that they are less relevant and far smaller in playerbase these days than the equivilant MP games which .. Phil Spencer (what he ACTUALLY meant) is completely valid.

But sure, lets keep pretending this makes Horizon "king of the crop".

@quadknight You could say exactly the same thing about Sony and Multiplayer games..... your all jokes.

@ProtossRushX: The hilarious thing is that HZD is a new IP with a female protagonist and it completely shits on all the new IPs MS has released this gen both in sales and accolades.

? Phil should GTFO, he’s a total dunce and doesn’t know what he’s talking about.

@MBirdy88: The biggest MP games are multiplat that already exist on PS4 and Sony didn’t come out and say something stupid like “MP games are dead/dying” because they don’t have a big MP exclusive so no you can’t say the same thing for Sony.

People are laughing at MS because of Phil’s stupid claims. He could have shut up and no one would be making fun of him and lems right now. It isn’t the “same thing”

Uncharted 4 was over 8.7 million copies sold back in a January last year (probably over 10 million by now) and Zelda/ Mario are kicking major ass. Phil is a complete idiot and he will be proven even more wrong when games like Spiderman, Death stranding, TLOU2, and GOW4 beat HZD’s sales.

@MBirdy88:

- I remember you were trying to downplay HZD based on sales numbers. or some shit like that

Now that Sony revealed the sales numbers, you're trying to damage control by calling it "an exception". :LMAO, Its obvious that must have hurt you.

- Also HZD is not the exception, U4, TOU2, SpiderMan, GOW, Death Stranding will do as good, if not better than these numbers. Sony First party games are the exception.

- Sony can leave the multiplayer to the third parties while they focus all their manpower on creating these amazing AAA blockbusters. Best of both worlds: No wonder they're killing this gen and close to 80 million PS4s.

We don't want first party talent like Naughty dog/Guerrilla to be wasted on COD/Destiny clones.

Thankfully Sony knows this.

nice overused gif, I'm so triggered right now I can barely control myself, you sir are a genius!

Sony focusing on the easy copy paste, then make shiny type games, cool!

I like gameplay, so I'l pass ;)

Beautiful game, but combat lacks punch and the gameplay is pretty average as well. Don't know if I'll ever finish it.

That statement should be written on the box of Sony's entire first party.

@MBirdy88: Dude, you sound salty as ****. That’s very unlike you, what happened?

@quadknight:

Lmao, Multipayers are much the same thing and the best multiplayer's are multiplats which the PS4 get them all with the biggest playerbase,

The best single players this gen have been exclusives, of which the majority are on PS4,

It would be a big waste for some like Naughty Dog to make a multiplayer focused game when 3rd parties owns that market.

PS4 get the Multiplayers, Single Players, Adult games, Children games, "dude bro" games, "weeb" games, all the genres, VR games etc.

It's by far the most diverse console I ever seen. And some says that it the sales it not deserved :lmao

There's no salt, just having a bit of fun with sony fanboys.

All circle jerking against xbox fans because a mediocre but flashy game sells millions!

Next up Spiderman ... press Q to catch a chopper! "like da real thing"

Huh. So it did end up outselling BotW in the end, at least for 2017. Well done. I'll take my crow and eat it gracefully.

Where's the lems at? I just see one hermit DCing...

@hawkeye44: True well said. Sony aren’t idiots like MS, they know that all the biggest MP games are multiplat so they don’t waste their talent trying to clone the biggest MP games. Instead they concentrate on delivering stellar SP games. This strategy has worked out extremely well for them and it’s why they are dominating this gen easily.

Instead of MS creating garbage like Crackhead and Sea of Piss they should be put their efforts into creating a high quality original SP IP. It will work wonders for their image and restore faith in the failing Xbone brand. Other than the botched launch of the Xbone, part of the reason they are getting their asses handed to them is that Sony is completely obliterating them in the games department.

@Epak_:"and the gameplay is pretty average as well."

I enjoyed it but it's nothing really special. 8/10

@MBirdy88: Bro, let it go already, you’re embarrassing yourself. I can tell you’ve never played HZD with stupid statements like this.

You’re making Hermits look bad in here, stop using lem talking points, it makes you look dense. It’s the reason why lems are the jokes of this gen, don’t join them.

Oh my... I guess it'l be photo time again soon.

I guess I never played uncharted either to say that it would be nothing without its graphics/marketing!

@Epak_: Agree 100%. Still a good game but it got a bit annoying the same way Assassin's Creed games tend to.

@MBirdy88: No need to post photos, I believe you because I know you wouldn’t lie about something like this. But still, don’t use lem talking points, you’re better than that. I can understand you not liking HZD because it may not be your type of game but it’s not a bad game by any means.

Don’t use the stupid lem tactic of bashing games because they aren’t your type of game. Tons of games out there I don’t like that are extremely popular and well reviewed. I don’t go calling them bad games because I don’t like them, I just move on to something else I like.

A frame rate that stays at it's target for 99% of the time is shit?

Hahahahaha.......... The salt is strong with this one.

Please, give me a break. In case you didn't know, I'm a Comic book Marvel (few DC) fanboy, Comic fans like myself are all excited to play a new Spider-Man game ever since Spider-Man: Homecoming was a massive hit last year. It seems System Wars don't even notice Marvel is as strong as it ever has been since MCU and with Avengers: Infinity War hitting May 2018, Spider-Man is gonna be in it and the movie will give us Comic fans a taste for this game this Summer.

Seriously, who in there right mind thinks Spider-Man PS4 game will flop?

This game has become my personal current gen favorite! Incredible game from start to end! I don't even platinum games anymore and I kept playing horizon till the platinum thats how amazing the game is! Currently loving the Frozen dlc!

The way horizon has its dlc is dlc done right!

I think it's the only major Sony 1st party title I haven't really enjoyed that much, so I gotta disagree on that one. It has that Ubisoft vibe which I don't really care about, if I had played it before The Witcher 3 and BotW I might have enjoyed it more. Right now it's just graphics graphics graphics and well, you need engaging gameplay too.

Awesome news! I still haven't finished the DLC. I always get distracted trying to find new, creative ways to take down those robo-dinos.

It's so darn good I may actually violate my own rule of not paying for DLC and picking up the Frozen DLC stuff.

Twas a fun game.
