Now, physical sales are generally trending down as adoption of digital games grows, but the difference between 2024 and 2025 isn't likely to be particularly big, meaning that 61 per cent downturn can't be hand-waved away by digital.
Steam's concurrent user count for the game has also been underwhelming; those keeping track say the game reached a peak of around 86,000 players, while Black Ops 6 peaked at over 300,000.
@RadioHedgeFund because why own a ps then if there first party games are going to other consoles sony consoles still sell very well xbox seems to have given up on consoles..
horizon and god of war are unlikely to ever come to xbox consoles these are sony bread and butter first party games..spiderman is a different story since sony does not own spiderman video games rights...
push square review. Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 is more enjoyable as a visual and auditory experience than it is to actually play. Even with new modes and a smooth 60fps mode the new Enhanced edition provides, the Ninja Theory sequel fails on two fronts: bad puzzles and repetitive combat. Despite that, you’ll never play anything else quite like Hellblade 2; the game’s very unique approach to the sensory side of video games is exquisite. It just about warrants playing entirely because of that.
pro= Incredible visuals, stunning scenery Very effective audio Really smooth 60fps mode Strong use of haptic feedback cons= Bland gameplay Bad puzzles Repetitive combat
quite a few youtubers who i wont mention are saying sony is going full third party they either are trolling for likes or are delusional thinking this will be the case..
@Ernie helldivers 2 sold 12 million copies in 3 months ps fans buy gamesjust like they buy xbox games they like like forza.. this is a test for xbox fans who wanted helldivers 2 will they buy it?
if xbox took away day 1 releases on game pass that would force gamepass users to buy brand new games... why you think xbox has to go full third party to sell games clearly being strictly for xbox gamers was not working for the company..
sony published and made the horizon lego switch game for the switch it did not sell well..this port of helldivers 2 is another sony gamble will it sell we shall see...
just like sony took a chance and agreed to let horizon characters in a lego game because lego games sell the best on the switch it did not succeed they are doing the same thing with helldivers 2 they know xbox fans have wanted this game to come over to xbox
