Only a few days ago, we were reporting that 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Palworld had sold thr💞ee million copies, but that number has already more than doubled. It has now sold seven million copies in five days, beating 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Pokemon Legends: Arceus' first week.
Arceus was a huge success for Nintendo, becoming the fastest-selling Pokemon game to date at the time. It sold 6.5 million copies in one week, beating Sword and Shield's six million. As reported by , Palworld topped both with its impressive seven million sales, which is not even factoring in Xbox sales or the number of players on Game Pass.

Palworld borrows its designs liberally from Pokemon, but the game is completely different, and that could impact h🍬ow long anyone cares about it
Palworld still has two days to go before its first week is up, so that number will only continue to skyrocket. For comparison, it hit an impressive 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:200,000 concurrent players on Steam at launch, but that number has since risen to a staggering 1.8 million. It's now 168澳洲幸运5开奖网🅘:the second mꩵost-played game on the platform, only beaten by PUBG's all-time peak of 3.2 million.
It's worth noting that, at least regarding Steam sales, Palworld hasn't topped Scarlet and Violet yet which sold ten million copies in its first three days alone, setting a new record for the Nintendo Switch. Factoring in Xbox sales, Palworld may be closer than we think, but for the time being, it still has some catching up to do.
At any rate, it has now beaten a slew ofꦍ incredibꦉly popular games on Steam in terms of concurrent player peaks. The top ten as of today looks like this:
- PUBG: Battlegrounds
- Palworld
- Counter-Strike 2
- Lost Ark
- Dota 2
- Cyberpunk 2077
- Elden Ring
- New World
- Hogwarts Legacy
- Baldur's Gate 3
While Palworld is a huge success, it's not without its controversy. It has been called out over the past few days for how similar its Pals are to Pokemon, with allegations even raised of using 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Nintendo models directly.
However, Pocketpair CEO Takuro Mizobe says that 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:the game cleared legal reviews and no action was taken.
