Tomorrow is Dark Souls III time.

Do you think it will have the best opening of the series (physical units) outselling Bloodborne?

Code:
[Week 25, 2010] DEMON'S SOULS: BLACK PHANTOM EDITION (BANDAI NAMCO GAMES) > 10,000 < 15,000 / NEW
[Week 40, 2011] DARK SOULS (BANDAI NAMCO GAMES) > 30,000 < 36,000 / NEW

Should do better since it's on multiple platforms and the Dark Souls series has been rising in sales each new entry.

I'll guess around ~55k since it's on multiple platforms and I think most people who bought BB will also buy DS3.

DSIII definitely should be up. With XBO being starved for new Souls games and PS4's already primed fanbase.

Do we have any numbers for the R&C franchise in the UK?



Only out next week.

You're right. I forgot. For some reason UK gets the game a week later than the rest of the EU.

Starved or not, i expect quite big split between PS4 and Xbone version of Dark Souls. Something like MGS V split between PS4 and Xbone.

Dark Souls II Scholar of the First Sin was fairly even split between PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

PS4 (49%)
XBO (43%)
PC (8%)

Also worth of notes Dark Souls II on 360 did better than on PS3... Yeah, no way we will see that massive gap between PS4 and XB1. Excluding PC, a 60/40 seem way more likely.
