Sony Santa Monica announced that its November tentpole game, God of War Ragnarok<\/a>, has passed another sales milestone \u2014 over 11 million copies sold in the first three months post-launch. That more than doubles its sales that it achieved in the first week after launch on November 9, 2022.<\/p>\n

None of this would be possible without the support of our fans, so thank you for coming on this journey with us! pic.twitter.com\/7KlAT9eddG<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Ragnarok was GamesBeat\u2019s bronze medalist in our list of Games of 2022<\/a>, also getting a 4.5\/5 rating in our review<\/a>. Sony announced last year, a few weeks after Ragnarok launched, that it was fastest-selling first-party launch in PlayStation history, hitting 5.1 million copies sold in the first week of its launch.<\/p>\n

Ragnarok\u2019s predecessor, God of War (2018), sold 3.1 million copies in its first three days. The latter has sold 23 million copies as of the last report<\/a>. The franchise has traded the fastest-selling title with the likes of The Last of Us and Spider-Man in the intervening years.<\/p>\n

Given that Sony recently announced greater availability for the PlayStation 5<\/a>, sales for one of its flagship titles should only go up even further. The publisher also has a habit of releasing its games on PC at a later date for a secondary boost in sales (which it did for both God of War, Horizon Zero Dawn and Marvel\u2019s Spider-Man). It\u2019s likely that God of War Ragnarok will follow suit.<\/p>\n
