Xbox Game Studios |OT8| Leaving The Drought Behind And Heading For Starfield

I thought it would be higher tbh… That’s (at least) 5 million Game Pass subs who haven’t tried the game, not to mention the MP is f2p.

20 mill is great though.

20 million players is a very good number , If we take into account that it is not a battle royale game

And it will grow with more (and awaited) content inbound. If Forge nails it in delivery, this game will be unhinged.

Yeah, like I said it’s great. Will get a nice bump once co-op is available too I suspect.

20 million is a great number, if it was a BR it would have been double that though

Where is Forza as a series now at in terms of most played racing games ever?

20 million is in any case a good number. The game has been out for 2 month. This is awesome no matter the circumstances

Especially compared to previous Halo games. Granted they were not F2P, but MS is more interested in players engagment than simply sales.

Those Forza numbers are mind boggling, 18M without being F2P.

Yeah, that is even more impressing tbh. Forza!

I would love to see Forza Motorsport numbers since it is a different style, but the name is clearly strong enough to generate interest.

The numbers are amazing, considering it’s only on Xbox ecosystem.

Is the SoT 25M including the 5M on PC?

I believe 25 million was reported before Steam count, so it could be more for all we know.

Eh Ill go safe and say 27.5M then lol.

Lol. Still amazing for an new IP, especially coming from Xbox.

This is I guess relevant now that Activision Is getting bought

Nope. Not at all. That was posted 4 months ago, meaning September. The talks with Activision didn’t start until afterwards.
