God of War Ragnarok has surpassed all other Sony first-party games

God of War Ragnarök celebrates a resounding success for Sony and sets a new sales record.

God of War Ragnarök sets a new sales record, beating previous Sony exclusives. Put simply, this means that no PlayStation game from a first-party studio has sold so many times in such a short time. Of course, God of War is also setting a franchise record at the same time. No God of War game has sold faster.

God of War Ragnarök breaks a record and is Sony’s best-selling game

That’s what it’s about : God of War Ragnarok released for PS4 and PS5 on November 9th. It’s a PlayStation exclusive from Sony Santa Monica. However, a PC version should follow at some point, the first part has already been released there.

More than 5 million: In the first week of launch, God of War Ragnarök sold over 5.1 million copies. That’s a franchise record for any God of War title. The 2018 soft reboot had sold 3.1 million copies during its launch period.

Sony recording: According to Sony, God of War Ragnarök is also the best-selling first-party game in PlayStation history. This title previously belonged to The Last of Us 2 with over 4 million units sold in the first three days of release. And before that, Insomniac’s Spider-Man sold over 3.3 million units in the first three days of release.
