3.65 million PC and console games were sold across the UK during March, an impressive rise of 26% over the same period in 2023. Dragons Dogma 2 and Final Fantasy VII: Rebirth also perform strongly, while hardware sales continue to fall.
While some see an increase in Helldivers 2's overall squad size as a positive, several think otherwise, with both arguments having valid points.
Honestly, I don't think the squad size should be increased. Don't break what works. The only thing that sucks is that if you have more than 4 friends online at the same time. It's like "I guess I didn't report for duty early enough" lol.
Patch 01.000.302 for Helldivers 2 has been released and there are multiple problems that players have been dealing with already. Luckily, community manager Twinbeard has confirmed these issues are being looked into.
After having become the most negatively reviewed game in Steam history, Helldivers 2 is dropping down the list as players change their reviews
The ratings still aren’t nearly where they were before but it’s making progress.
omg, who in Sony camp decided to do this should no longer have a job. They almost ruin a really good game sales.
"After eight weeks, the game's sales are now trending ahead of where Spider-Man 2 (Sony's last big release) was after the same length of time. They are, of course, very different games, with Spider-Man 2 retailing at £70 and only releasing on PS5. Helldivers 2 has a lower price and is also available on PC."
wow! never expected Helldivers 2 to be this big hit. congrats to the devs and Sony :)
It's no surprise software sales were better in March compared to February. There were some strong releases such as Dragons Dogma 2 and Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. Arrowhead has been very active with content and event updates in Helldivers 2 which is live service done right.
It seems the sale on Hogwarts Legacy gave the game a second wind as it still managed to score in the top 10. $30 on steam and $35 on PSN.
All consoles also saw an increase in units sold compared to February.
It's nice seeing the PlayStation Portal continuing to surprise so many people with its demand.
!!! Its been NO.1 IN the uk - 8 WEEKS IN A ROW !!!
great game!
