"Sony Computer Entertainment Japan Studio and From Software’s PlayStation 4 action RPG Bloodborne have cumulatively sold through more than one millin units worldwide as of April 5, Sony announced."

 

[Boke1879]

Download and retail. Word of mouth I can see 3 million lifetime sales easily.

[Lakitu]

This is good, right?

 

[Cidd]

[Aaron D.]

Congrats, From!

Lots of great sales numbers coming out today.

 

[StrongBlackVine]

Rock on! More Sony/From collaborations.

 

[Zombie James]

Shipments =/= sold-through

Did you read the OP?

 

[Neiteio]

Well-deserved!

[educator]

Shipments =/= sold-through

Please read the article..

 

[Xpliskin]

Shipments =/= sold-through

Usually people don't read the OP, that's normal.

But not reading the title is taking it to the next new level.

 

[ethomaz]

Deserved.

I'm holding my prediction of close to 500k for NPD March yet.

 

[Nightengale]

Expected.

 

[Boke1879]

We never got one of these statements for The Order...flop confirmed... And great showing for Bloodborne.

The last time I remember Sony giving out actual numbers like this? It was for God Of War 3

 

[darkwing]

NICE!

I have yet to finish the game and I'm loving every death

 

[Madchad]

Very nice, i bet that helped shift quite a few PS4 along with it

 

[sestrugen]

Shipments =/= sold-through

 

[BadWolf]

Excellent.

 

[John Bender]

Shipments =/= sold-through

Read the OP

 

[IAmRandom31]

So we know that what 150k were in Japan?

Which leaves +850k for the rest of the world.

Even at a 50/50 split, that would put NA around 425k first week sales.

Since they say OVER 1,000,000. It is over 425k sales first week for Bloodborne.

WELL DONE.

 

[Nightengale]

The last time I remember Sony giving out actual numbers like this? It was for God Of War 3

inFamous : Second Son. A million sold in... 9 days?

 

[Blablurn]

lol

 

[The_Darkest_Red]

The series has been selling well since Dark Souls, I kind of expected more for some reason. Then again I guess this is pretty good for only one week of sales.

 

[Psycho_Mantis]

1 million sold in 12 days.......

Comparison, DS2 shipped 1.5 million in 1 month.

 

[FinalD]

The last time I remember Sony giving out actual numbers like this? It was for God Of War 3

I think they did the same for inFamous Second Son.

 

[Namikaze1]

Fantastic news! Love the game a lot. Hoping for an Artorias of the Abyss-like DLC in the near future.

 

[Begaria]

Awesome! Right on the heels of inFamous Second Son's sold through of a million in 9 days to. I believe this is 13ish days to reach a million for Bloodborne?

 

[jayu26]

The last time I remember Sony giving out actual numbers like this? It was for God Of War 3

They most recently did for it Killzone Shawfall and inFamous Second Son. When they like the sells, they announce them...

 

[Minions]

On its way to 2-3 million.

I'm happy people are enjoying this game as much as I am!

 

[jacobeid]

Impressive and well deserved.

 

[ajb1888]

Glad to see so many enjoying an awesome game!

 

[Vitten]

Always good to see a quality product get the sales it deserves.

There's still hope left for the gaming world after all.

 

[On Demand]

To be fair to, Chobel, the title in the article does say shipments. It confused me too at first.

 

[Elixist]

[darkwing]
