DOOM Eternal Sold 3x More Digital Copies Than DOOM (2016) At Launch

Nielsen company SuperData has published its worldwide digital games market report for March 2020, revealing that DOOM Eternal sold three million digital copies throughout its launch month. In comparison, DOOM (2016) sold just 957k digital copies during its launch back in May 2016.

It's great news for the franchise, with SuperData crediting the boost in sales to strong reviews (we called it "one of the best first-person shooters ever made"), and the positive reception to the game's predecessor.

Elsewhere, the report noted that Call of Duty: Modern Warfare's monthly active user number reached an all-time high of 62.7 million following the launch of the free-to-play Call of Duty: Warzone, while spending on digital games also grew to an all-time high of $10 billion (!).
