God of War has “significantly exceeded expectations” according to Sony’s chief financial officer Hiroki Totoki, who was talking during a financial conference call for investors in which the company increased its forecast for the current fiscal year. The suit also mentioned that some third-party titles have performed better than expected as well, although he stopped short of naming which ones.
The manufacturer has now shipped 82.2 million PlayStation 4 consoles worldwide, while God of War sold over five million copies within its first month on sale. The platform holder now expects its system to ship 17 million units by the end of 31st March 2019, up from its previous prediction of 16 million units.

Game of the generation!
Would be nice to know the current numbers. I predict that God of War PS4 has sold around 8 million since launch. Got a nice pint riding on it
I bet Persona 5 is one of the 3rd party titles, and honestly, i reckon the Yakuza series too
I still need to platinum it after finishing gravity rush remastered
I haven't bought it yet, so I'll be adding to those numbers at some point.
Boy!
Game of the Generation is correct. I don't think anyone would have predicted it would be that good.
A great game indeed, would hope it does that well for Sony gang.

Wonder how well the spidey ps4 bundle sold on pre-orders for them to raise the forcast by a million after only selling about 3 million in that quarter. I know it sold out where I am but how many were available?
Personally hated the old games, crap. I suppose that space csn aand should be filled by indie devs
I think it's safe to say that it exceeded a lot of people's expectations. Talk about a phenomenal game.
@Rob_230 Persona 5 hasn't sold much in a while.
@Neolit But we were always at war with Eurasia! Also, we should celebrate the Big Brother for raising the chocolate rations!
Exceeded my expectations no doubt. Still hoping for a new game + mode.
