Elden Ring’s triumphal march still cannot be stopped. As Bandai Namco proudly announces, the next sales milestone has been reached. The Souls-Like now surpasses some mainstream titles and can justifiably claim to be a mega-hit.
Neither From Software nor Bandai Namco saw the immense success of Elden Ring coming to this extent. The Souls-Like won tons of Game-of-the-Year-Awards and is seen by many not only as one of the best titles of 2022, but also as an important milestone for the entire gaming sector. The sales figures show this accordingly, in September developers and publishers proudly announced that they had sold a whopping 17.5 million units. You have to let that sink in first. Anyone who thought that the hype would slowly die down is mistaken. A proudly announced new milestone suggests so.

Bandai Namco and From Software have distributed a whopping 20 million copies of the game. To put this in perspective, more units of the Elden Ring have been shipped and sold digitally than the population of North Rhine-Westphalia. The largest federal state in Germany. Uff.
The persistent rumors that a fat DLC is imminent should be beneficial to the sales figures. From Software itself has not yet confirmed anything directly, but at least stated that it was not finished with the topic of the Elden Ring. According to various rumors and leaks, the expansion will include new bosses, weapons and legacy dungeons. We can be curious to see what meanness Miyazaki’s game developer has in store for us. Until then, it should still be a while, so there is enough time to play through the main game again with a dance mat or acoustic guitar.
Something is happening at Elden Ring – a free update will be released on December 7th that will offer you new PvP options.
