“Q1 also saw the highly successful release of Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, the result of Activision’s approach to selectively partnering with high-quality developers to leverage our publishing and marketing scale and expertise,” Johnson said. “We couldn’t be more pleased with the collaboration, execution, and response to FromSoftware’s critically acclaimed title from gaming communities worldwide.”
Along with strong sales in the first 10 days, digital sales for the title were also very good. As per SuperData, Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice hit 1.4 million digital sales in March. Not only was it one of the most successful digital launches that month, but also surpassed Dark Souls 3. The latter sold 200,000 copies digitally in its launch month.
