Total War: Three Kingdoms has sold a million copies in its first week
May 29, 2019 Total War: Three Kingdoms has just hit a big milestone in its first week
The launch of Total War: Three Kingdoms has brought impressive player counts and sales. In its first week, the game has sold over a million copies, making it the fastest-selling title in Creative Assembly's Total War franchise. This follows news earlier this week that the game reached a new player count peak of 191,816 - a record for the series and the biggest launch for any Steam game so far this year.
With bigger player counts, that likely puts it just above Sekiro’s Steam sales, as VG247 notes. While we don’t have reliable Steam sales numbers, Sekiro’s player count peaked at 124,334 according to Steam Charts, which puts it in place as the second-biggest launch of 2019. Other big titles like Resident Evil 2 and Devil May Cry 5 pulled in peaks of around 74k and 88k, respectively.
Rob Bartholomew, Chief Product Officer, has said of its success "we knew we had something special with Three Kingdoms but the response from players, old and new, has exceeded all expectations". He added "we’re seeing a lot of ‘best Total War ever’ comments out there. We’re very proud".
