Guerrilla Games’ Horizon: Zero Dawn has sold 2.6 million units worldwide in its first two weeks. Sales include physical and digital units. Sony says it’s now the best-selling new IP for PS4 and the “biggest debut” for Guerrilla Games in its history.
SIE Worldwide Studios chairman Shawn Layden said, “We knew Horizon: Zero Dawn was going to be something special, so to see the incredible critical reaction to a brand new game world translate into this level of sales is really gratifying. Guerrilla has created a game that is nothing short of exceptional, and the reaction we have seen from fans – from hours and hours of gameplay streaming to endless photo sharing – shows just how impactful it has been.”
Guerrilla managing director Hermen Hulst further added, “We’re thrilled that Horizon: Zero Dawn has been embraced by critics and players alike. Developing the game was a labor of love, so it’s extremely satisfying to see that it elicits the same passion and enthusiasm from the gaming public that we felt during its development.”
Hulst also noted that the team is working on a story expansion for the game. More information is still pending so stay tuned.
