Currently and temporarily the most pre-ordered PlayStation game in the US. Second for many European countries.
Quite the anomaly! Here’s to Rockstar-level nonsense!
It hits around 15 million at its price point it’s a made over a billion dollars.
Yeah but you have to subtract development cost and the ongoing business costs at Larian. The rent in Ghent alone!
I believe BG3 will end up being one of the costliest ever RPGs, maybe even the most costly. As I've said many times previously, they'll need a *minimum* of 10 million in sales just to be considered having done okay, and a whole lot more beyond that to be judged truly successful. Several gaming journos are now beginning to write that indeed BG3 should be properly compared with games like Elden Ring, CP2077, and Zelda (which is again something I've long argued), and that means sales numbers WELL beyond 10 million.
Steamspy now says between 5 and 10 million. Not sure what happened. Maybe refunds? Glitch?
Or maybe Steam Spy is completely untrustworthy crap? I've never believed their numbers for any game.
