10 million units in just over a year.
God of War has reached a huge milestone as it has now sold over 10 million units since it launched on the PlayStation 4 in April of last year.
This news was revealed by Sony Interactive Entertainment president and CEO Jim Ryan during his presentation at Sony’s IR Day 2019, and while we don’t have an exact number, we do know that it joins other PS4 exclusives like Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End, The Last of Us Remastered, and Horizon: Zero Dawn in the 10 million units sold club.
God of War, which was our Game of the Year in 2018, was developed by Santa Monica Studio and the team recently released a documentary, God of War – Raising Kratos, based on the entire production cycle of the game.
All of these PlayStation 4 exclusives have helped Sony maintain the sales lead this generation, with PS4 sales crossing over 91.6 million units sold globally earlier this year.
God of War, obviously, made our list of The Best PS4 Games, with it claiming the #1 spot and Bloodborne and The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt placing just behind it.
