Sony revealed that Wolverine sold 2.4M units until November 4th, making a big statement in a victory over chuds who have been running a vicious cyberbullying campaign on Insomniac Games, making up lies about game mechanics due to misinformation spread by SkillUp.
While the number is slightly less than what the notorious commercial flop FFXVI did (3m in 3 days), it is still heartening news for Insomniac amidst bad reviews and the aforementioned cyberbullying.

Very nice
Too bad it needed to sell at least 6 millions

A bit over 2 million is not a "win" for modern AAA lol. They need like 6 million to break even, but it's unlikely they will reach that goal considering all marketing ended long ago, the game got bashed by everyone for being mediocre and soon it will lose it's ONE GAME status to Goy Theft Auto 6.

If their numbers are even vaguely close to true, that's a pretty bad falloff then.

Can Sony sue SkillUp for falsely misleading potential buyers with his malicious review of Wolverine? They can claim damages of at least an extra 1m copies.

Where is there anything false or malicious being said? And you of course aren't trying to attribute a patch after they finally had to admit they fucked up to the release because THAT would be false and misleading.

Interesting how Returnal is listed there, and it sold 560K copies. That's the lowest sales among all the games on that list. Which means that Saros sold even less than 560K. It's possible it didn't even reach 500K.

If the patch fixed the game and took less than a week to release then all it did was cosmetic, because it's impossible to change that big of a game in a week.
But I guess placebo is real

>>750990376
Sony don't care because they are making billions from GTA, Genshin, Fortnite etc MTX because of the 30% tax. And now GTA VI

Meanwhile, Meccha Chameleon sold 20 million copies in 2 months.

I don't think a multiplatform release would save this game or Saros but it is interesting to see companies like Sony and Xbox take these big expensive 'safe bets' like wolverine and gears yet still underperform while hanging on to exclusivity as if we're still in the 90s and 2000s when it made more sense to have exclusives.

>>750991631

>>750992420
The whole vision for wolverine was retarded to begin with since they wanted some lame and gay story game instead of a 1 to 3 year development of cashgrab beat em up game.

>If the patch fixed the game
It didn't considering post patch the game was still a buggy piece of shit.

It will be lucky if it hits 3 million lifetime. And that would have been fine if it had the AA budget and price tag that reflects its shallow, one dimensional, buggy low end AA gameplay. But its a AAA with a hefty AAA budget to go along with it. What a flop.

Marvel won't break off the contract either - they get promised a game with a certain amount of sales too. It's essentially marketing for them and they only foot the starting bill. Whatever that breakline is, that's money out of Sony/Insomniac's own pockets. There's 2 or 3 more games contracted across the deal. Sony can break it but have to pay the breakup costs. Holy shit they better figure it out for the follow-up games.

3 million sales even for AAA is rare in today's economy.

Gears of War E day, Halo: Campaign Evolved, Death Stranding 2, Mortal Shell 2, Fatekeeper, Gothic 1 Remake, Onimusha, Blood of Dawnwalker, Marathon and Ace Combat 8 all sold 1-2 million.

>>750992712
Also Nioh 3 and Dynasty Warriors Origins

>>750992697
I doubt they'll even figure out what's wrong with their game even if firings happens since their hugboxes enforces toxic positivity.

It doesn't matter, lefties don't make games to sell, they just want to flood the entire market with propaganda to poz and destroy everything
the government is paying for these games so they can take several concord level failures and keep going, blaming gamers, trends, the economy, interest in the ip, etc. but never acknowledging the elephant in the room
And I can't feel bad for the devs because all the good ones were already replaced by DEI hires and outsourced indians, so all the mass layoffs happening and coming next are just cycling through the trash endlessly
