Street Fighter 6 Sells 5 Million Units
Street Fighter 6 has now sold over 5 million copies worldwide. Capcom's latest fighting game continues to perform well long after its initial release. Elden Ring Nightreign, FromSoftware's highly anticipated expansion, launched with massive momentum. The title moved over 3.5 million copies in its first four days, cementing the franchise's place at the top of the action RPG genre.
Stellar Blade recently made its PC debut and has now surpassed 3 million total sales. Over a million of those came within the first three days on PC alone. Published by Sony, the game became the company's most successful single-player release on Steam by concurrent player count, peaking at over 192,000 users. Under the Waves, the narrative-focused title from Quantic Dream, reached the 1 million sales mark nearly two years after launch—a solid result for a more niche experience.
Indie publisher Hooded Horse saw a strong opening week with 9 Kings, which sold over 250,000 copies. MindsEye, developed by a former GTA producer, entered the market with 300,000 wishlists but struggled post-launch. The game sits at just 38% positive user reviews, and its active player count has dropped to around 200.
