Publisher Bandai Namco recently announced that its popular role-playing open-world video game, Elden Ring, has sold more than 20.5 million copies worldwide since its debut in February 2022.

In its recent investor report, the company stated that the game had garnered 20.5 million purchases globally as of the end of the fiscal year 2022. In addition, the report mentioned substantial returns from overseas buyers and exceptional overall revenue growth due to unprecedented demand from existing customers, among other factors.

However, the report also acknowledged that new titles faced slower initial sales, although smaller and medium-sized products showed consistent progress. According to a translation of the report, “While new worldwide titles experienced a slower start, the repeat sales of existing titles such as Elden Ring were robust, leading to a remarkable milestone of 20.5 million copies sold worldwide.”

The report further stated, “We anticipate a decline in repeat sales for Elden Ring, which made a substantial contribution during the previous year.”

Bandai Namco also revealed some exciting plans for their future projects. The company aims to enhance its development capabilities to ensure better quality in upcoming titles, providing long-term enjoyment for players. Among the highly anticipated releases are Armored Core, Tekken and a new Naruto title.

In addition to the announcement of the sales, Bandai Namco shared its financial results for the previous fiscal year, which concluded on March 31, 2023. The company reported impressive performance, with sales reaching $7.3 billion.

For fans eagerly anticipating more content for Elden Ring, there’s good news. FromSoftware announced a new expansion called Shadow Of The Erdtree in February. It will be available for PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.

Elden Ring has received widespread praise since its initial release and deservingly won the Game Of The Year award at The Game Awards 2022.
