Although many gamers are aware of the Souls series made by From Software, due to the games being notoriously difficult, nobody could have foreseen the absolute success that Elden Ring<\/a> would have upon its release. Dark Souls 3 and Bloodborne were successful in their own right, but Elden Ring has wiped the floor with them and continues to do so a full six months after its release.<\/p>\n

So let’s take a look at the details surrounding Elden Rings’s impressive (to say the least) sales that have continued six months after its release. And the possible reasons as to why the game has done as well as it has.<\/p>\n

Elden Ring had shipped 16.6 million copies worldwide as of the end of June, according to Bandai Namco. While many of these sales occurred in the first few months after Elden Ring’s release, the fact that it is still selling in the millions demonstrates that the game is incredibly popular even six months later.<\/p>\n

Elden Ring’s sales figures have now surpassed those of FromSoftware’s previous title, Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, which sold 5 million copies by July 2020 following its release in early 2019. And at the time of writing, Elden Ring remains the top-selling game of the year<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Elden Ring may continue to sell well due to the reputation FromSoftware has built over years of producing quality titles. Or it may be that Elden Ring’s open world and other mechanics make it a much more welcoming experience for new players.<\/p>\n
