God of War Ragnarök is finally among us. We have had to wait four long years for Kratos Y atreus return to our screens to continue the adventure in Midgard. The title is finally available on PS5 and PS4.
Barely two weeks have passed since its launch, but the work of Santa Monica Studio has just revealed the sales figures it has achieved. Nothing more and nothing less than 5.1 million units sold in its first week of life, which is absolutely spectacular data that Sony is responsible for putting into perspective.
Congratulations to @SonySantaMonica for making God of War Ragnarok the fastest-selling first party launch game in PlayStation history! 🪓 pic.twitter.com/NPgN6YHRnQ

We talk about fastest selling PlayStation exclusive at launch in all of history and, as if that were not enough, it marks a new record for the Ghost of Sparta franchise. Little joke with what the Nordic sequel has achieved.
For example, The Last of Us Part II reached 4 million games sold in its first three days, while 2018’s God of War reached 3.1 million units in the same time frame as Naughty Dog’s opus.
