Fallout 4 has been one of the most popular games on the market since it was first launched and it appears that popularity has even managed to help the Xbox One in parts of the world the console hasn’t had a ton of success. The game has already been named Amazon UK’s favorite game of 2015 and it’s plenty popular in Japan as well. A new report has just circulated that shows that the Xbox One version of Fallout 4 sold more than 6,000 copies in its first week.
That number might not be all that impressive when compared to games on the PS4 but when it comes to Xbox One, the game has already become one of the most popular titles on the console in Japan. Just how bad have Microsoft’s sales been in that country? Despite Fallout 4 being one of the most popular on the console, Dualshockers pointed out the game only made it up to 45th on the sales list. Still, the game got close to Halo 5: Guardians, that sold 7,455 copies in its debut week, and it beat Forza Motorsport 6 (around 4,000 copies), Call of Duty: Black Ops III (about 1,300 copies), and most of the rest of the console’s line-up.
It’s possible the continued march of good games on the console is starting to make a dent in Japan. It’s also possible that Fallout 4 is just that good a game.
