Dark Souls sells 1.19 million in the West

by Nathan Misa Featured 0 Comments 10 Votes 547 Views 09/05/2012 Back to News

The dark and mystical Dark Souls is both sadistically difficult and extremely rewarding in the way it has challenged players all across the globe, being embraced by critics and gamers alike. Today it has been revealed that the hit RPG has reached 1.19 million copies sold across North America and Europe, according to specific sales data from Namco Bandai's financials, as originally reported by Joystiq.

The data does not take into account the game's strong sales in its native Japan. The success of the Xbox 360 and PS3 iterations is great news for developer From Software and Namco Bandai, and they can use the momentum of the sales for the highly anticipated release of Dark Souls: Prepare to Die edition for PC, which includes bonus content for the lucky PC fans.

For those looking to test their sanity once more or for the PC-gamers looking for a refreshing RPG challenge, The Prepare to Die edition is scheduled for release on August 24.

    Further to my previous blog with the promo marketing stuff (i.e. crap I give away to help promote the name but didn't really expect people to buy) I've now started selling shirts/clothes.
