Its sales are 69% bigger than what Elden Ring managed over the same period, which was the best-selling game during the first half of 2022. Hogwarts Legacy is comfortably the biggest selling game for the first half of the year across Europe. For full details on what is counted, check the foot of the article. Digital games from indie developers and publishers are also not included. This is based on GSD data, and includes physical game sold in major European markets, and digital game sales from almost all major publishers across every European country (Nintendo the notable absentee here). 47 million games were sold via digital download stores, which is a rise of 7%. Overall 29.1 million physical games were sold across Europe, a drop of 9% year-on-year. Spain delivered 5.4 million game sales (up 6.8%), while Italy is just behind with 4.9 million (up 2.7%). ![]() ![]() This is followed by Germany with 14 million games sold (down 11%) and then France with 11.1 million sales (up 8%). The UK was the biggest European market for game sales, representing 15.3 million games sold, a rise of 5.5% over the same period in 2022. The PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions will launch on April 4, and the Nintendo Switch version will follow on July 25.76.1 million console and PC games were sold across Europe during the first half of the year, which is marginally up over the same period in 2022. The PlayStation 5 version will go live at midnight in your local time zone (except for the Pacific time zone in North America, which for some reason will go live at 9 pm). Hogwarts Legacy will fully unlock on PC at 10 am PT/1 pm ET/6 pm GMT on February 10. Remember, this player count only includes people who purchased the $70/£60 deluxe edition and then took advantage of the early access period on Steam: That excludes all standard edition sales and deluxe owners who either didn't care or forgot about the early access period, not to mention the Epic Games Store release and the console versions, which I have no doubt will draw even bigger audiences. Pre-purchases alone made it one of the best-selling games on Steam, and it currently holds the top spot on the list.īut the scale of the success, I think, is genuinely surprising. There was never any question that Hogwarts Legacy was going to be a hit, despite the backlash against it. ![]()
