Undeniably, God of War is one of Sony’s biggest success with not only huge sales numbers but also incredible review rates, giving it a 10 out of 10 on a big number of gaming sites. The developers have also managed to reimagine Kratos in the eyes of the fans, giving him a more compassionate character and generally, feelings. With all these under consideration, PlayStation Blog has posted today the news of God of War being the fastest-selling title on PlayStation 4 along with a heartfelt message from studio head Shannon Studstill:
God of War, as mentioned above, has a high chance of becoming the best-selling PlayStation 4 exclusive title. For now, Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End holds that title with 8.7 million units sold, followed by Horizon Zero Dawn with 7.6 million units. God of War has 3.1 million sold in just three days so imagine what its future might hold.
In related news, Cory Barlog, God of War director, revealed that he has 5 more titles for God of War “mapped out in his head”. The first part of the new saga took 5 years to finish, however, Barlog is optimistic that it won’t take 25 years to see the end of the series.
