God of War Ragnarök sets a new sales record, breaking previous Sony exclusives. In plain language, this means that no PlayStation game from a first-party studio has sold so many times in such a short time. Of course, God of War also sets a franchise record at the same time. No God of War game has sold faster.

God of War Ragnarök breaks record and is the fastest selling Sony game

That’s what it’s about: God of War Ragnarok was released for PS4 and PS5 on November 9th. It’s a PlayStation exclusive from Sony Santa Monica. However, a PC release should follow at some point, the first part has already been published there.

Over 5 million: Within the first week of launch, God of War Ragnarök has sold over 5.1 million copies. That’s a franchise record for any God of War title. The soft reboot from 2018 had sold 3.1 million copies in its launch period.

Sony record: According to Sony, God of War Ragnarök is also the fastest-selling first-party game in PlayStation history. This title previously belonged to The Last of Us 2 with over 4 million units sold in the first three days after release. And before that, Insomniac’s Spider-Man sold over 3.3 million units in the first three days of release.
