In its second week the game sold 50/50 on PC/PS5 with PC selling slightly more but sales have significantly shifted as the overall data now has PC exceeding PS5 sales with more than 60% of sales taking place on PC.
If that's true and the industry as a whole is moving in that direction, that'll mean...i guess PC gamers are more open into GaaS titles
The #1 most played game on PlayStation 5 right now is Helldivers 2. It's bigger than Fortnite.PC loveeees gaaaaaaas
You can keep it
Sony gets 80% since the game exceeded its 70% level (1 mil sold I believe).It was the correct choice launching this same day on PC. In terms of revenue, Sony gets only 70% of that PC userbase and they don't require PS Plus subscription. Much less valuable.
I still think the day and date strategy will ramp up even for some single player games.
There is no need to be upset at this news.i guess PC gamers are more open into GaaS titles
There is no need to be upset at this news.
More day and date PC releases is just a no-brainer at this point.
We know...More day and date PC releases is just a no-brainer at this point.
"If we have strong first-party content, not only with our console, but also other platforms like computers we can help operating profit to improve."
It's not being pushed as negative news, it's just persecution complex for no damn reason.I am still trying to figure out what the Gotcha is with this narrative. It is doing extremely well on both platforms. I think we all know Sony will bring more service games day one, they have pretty much confirmed it. I am surprised the gap is not a bit wider in favor of PC due to it being a shooter and being able to use m/kb. If/when I pick it up, it will be on PC for that reason. It is just a bit weird seeing this pushed as negative news when there is nothing negative about it.
This is just in Europe

PS5 is not stronger than PC in Europe.Which is where PlayStation is strongest?
There is zero chance that the console-demographic will collectively move to PC gaming for the foreseeable future.If that's true and the industry as a whole is moving in that direction, that'll mean...
(can't say it out loud, the half of GAF will come for me then)
Word came down. If it's successful, push day one narrative. If it isn't, Playstation GaaS bad. Meanwhile, Playstation gamers just want xbox players to join the fun at a 30%(anonymous) clipI am still trying to figure out what the Gotcha is with this narrative.

GaaS/Multiplayer games. Daddy Herman already confirmed that.More day and date PC releases is just a no-brainer at this point.
Helldivers 2 is definitely most popular in America. Steam has been peaking in Americas Prime time.Which is where PlayStation is strongest?
With Xbox falling behind it seems there is a push to put PlayStation up against PC it's weird but it's been going on for the last few years but it's now being pushed into high gear.Can someone explain why the other threads devolved into people arguing about PC versus ps sales?
Just saw pages of arguments and my eyes glazed over. Who is upset about a larger player base?
I didn't see people complaining about cheating which seems like the biggest concern BTW ps and PC games working together.
Just seems like a really weird thing to argue about as a Playstation lover.

Maybe? I do not remember a lot of comparisons between other console exclusive titles vs PC player counts but I have the memory of a goldfish. Maybe Halo Infinite? Either way, the game is doing well on both platforms. I really do need to pick it up and see what all of the fuss is about.It's not being pushed as negative news, it's just persecution complex for no damn reason.
Didn't you hear, PS5 owners are begging for the game to go to Xbox to help them spread democracy.I honestly don’t know what the big deal is. It’s the same game. Its not helldivers vs starfield. Its helldivers vs helldivers. Who cares where it sells more? lol
If anything I’d be upset if i was a ps5 owner paying $85 a year for ps+ and unable to login because us PC gamers are hogging all the servers. But even then I’d expect them to be mad at Sony for not allocating more servers for paying ps+ customers and ps5 owners, not at PC gamers who still paid the same price for the actual game.
