In my enthusiasm for gaming, I can’t help but share some exciting news! As a fan, it’s heartening to know that Sony has taken a stand against Tencent’s alleged copy of the beloved game, Light of Motiram. To add to the excitement, Sony has announced that sales of their Horizon franchise have surpassed an impressive 38 million units globally! This just goes to show the enduring appeal of Sony’s games and their commitment to quality entertainment.
In April 2023, we received information about the sales performance of the Guerrilla series. At that time, the platform owner announced that the franchise had sold over 32.7 million copies. This latest figure represents an increase of five million units since then, over a span of two years.
Over the recent years, the platform owner has moved Horizon Forbidden West to PC, launched a spin-off titled LEGO Horizon Adventures, and released an upgraded version of Horizon Zero Dawn, Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered.
Indeed, these five million units will encompass all previously mentioned items, along with leftover sales from any current titles. Quite remarkable, isn’t it?
Achieving this success would place Horizon among PlayStation’s top-selling franchises, standing alongside heavyweights such as Gran Turismo (over 90 million copies sold), God of War (over 66 million units), Marvel’s Spider-Man (more than 50 million units), and The Last of Us (over 37 million units).
Sony seldom shares updated figures on the lifelong sales of their product lines, making it probable that some of the given numbers are no longer current. Nonetheless, it’s good to know that there’s a newer sales report available for Horizon, right?
Indeed, it’s worth noting that this figure has come to light due to a legal dispute. In this case, Sony has alleged that Tencent copied their post-post-apocalyptic release, the survival game known as “Light of Motiram”, in a lawsuit against them for plagiarism.
The company controlling the platform is aiming to halt the sale of a competitively-developed Chinese alternative, claiming that at some point, their competitor attempted to secure a licensing agreement for the Horizon IP to use in their own title.
