We’ve talked about this before, but the fact remains that we don’t have any idea how well or poorly most games are performing on the open market. This message has been driven home once again today due to the coverage of the UK sales of DmC: Devil May Cry.
Huzaifah from eXputer: "Devil May Cry 5, the latest iteration in the iconic DMC franchise by Capcom, still holds its own as a fantastic hack-and-slash in 2024."
NVIDIA continues to add games to GeForce NOW. This week, Devil May Cry 5, Gears Tactics, and The Crew Motorfest lead the charge.
Characters in hack and slash games are always badass. Guess what? this list is also badass. Here are the best hack and slash games on the PS4
DMC4's first week in the UK was 184,648 copies according to VGchartz.
A third of that is about 60k copies. Not very strong in truth, and I don't think that the other 2/3'rd are in digital sales.
I will not make a call on this game until I see the worldwide sales, thats when the picture is clear, but so far it's not a strong opening. And I will willing to bet that after this week it will fall fast from the charts.
DmC on amazon is already down to #70 and below on each console, with the PS3 DMCHD outdoing the new game.
Again, no one can make a full call yet, and I won't either, but from what we are seeing, it might not be a strong as Capcom hoped.
I hope this game fails so Capcom let Platinum make the next one.
We will know how good/bad it does on how quickly it drops in price.
I don't want the game to fail. Why? the developers have families and bills and they need support. I can see if it was a terrible game but the reviews show that is a good game. I was a hater at first but they are people and got families to feed.
