Elden Ring took the world by storm earlier this year when it was released and impressed those who played it. Its open-world design is so highly-praised that many people now use it as a shining example of how open-world games should be designed. With all of this praise, it’s no wonder that the game managed to do well at launch, selling more than 13.4 million copies during its first five weeks. It turns out that game is still selling well as a recent financial report from Bandai Namco revealed that the game has sold about 4 million more copies since then.
Elden Ring Has Sold 17.5 Million Copies Worldwide
According to Bandai Namco, publisher of Elden Ring, the game has now sold 17.5 million copies worldwide. This information was revealed by the company in its Q2 fiscal year 2023 report. The last time sales figures for the game were released was back in August when it was revealed that the game had sold 16.6 million copies. The game could potentially reach 20 million copies sold by February next year, one year after it was originally released .
Will There Be a DLC Announcement Soon?
Recently, computer-savy Elden Ring fans managed to datamine the game files and discovered potential DLC information. This datamine hinted at several new areas that would be coming to the game in the form of DLC. The question is when will the DLC come out if it is still coming? From Software has been silent on potential DLC but this recent datamine could indicate that an announcement is coming soon. Maybe we’ll see one at The Game Awards in a few weeks or around the game’s one year anniversary.
