It sold 1 million copies on day one and 1.25 million by day two. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/wardogs-sells-2-million-copies-in-5-days-as-early-access-shooter-blows-up-on-steam\">Bulkhead announced 2 million sales after just five days<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/superhys\/status\/2100259110549610960\">Rhys Elliott of Alinea Analytics<\/a>, Wardogs is now up to 2.2 million copies sold on Steam, which means it\u2019s outpacing Arc Raiders (1.7 million) and Helldivers 2 (1 million) when launch aligned on Valve\u2019s platform.<\/p>\n<section data-transform=\"ignvideo\" data-slug=\"wardogs-official-launch-trailer\" data-loop=\"\"><\/section>\n<p>Not only that, with approximately $70 million in revenue generated so far, Wardogs has already made more money on Steam alone than Bungie\u2019s Marathon has managed across PC and console so far, Elliott\u2019s data suggests. \u201cIt\u2019s another reminder that, when it comes to live-service games, community trumps budget and pedigree,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The question now is can Wardogs maintain its momentum with both Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 and GTA 6 around the corner. Both Arc Raiders and Helldivers 2 enjoyed huge interest months after release, and went on to sell many millions of copies. Wardogs still has a long way to go before matching both games longer term, but it\u2019s worth remembering Wardogs is in early access, where it will remain for 1-2 years. A console version planned for 2028. \u201cWe are adamant that we do not want to be in Early Access for a long time,\u201d its Steam page reads. Overnight, <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Brammflakes\/status\/2100104716520661126\">Bulkhead boss Joe Brammer said<\/a> Season 2 will bring \u201clots of new content and changes\u201d now Wardogs was entering the next phase of development.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWardogs\u2018 growth story is far from over,\u201d Elliott continued. \u201cIt\u2019s got some maintenance hills to climb and a strong roadmap to deliver on before it can dream of reaching the heights of, say, an Arc Raiders.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut make no mistake: even if it never sold another copy, Wardogs is already a huge success. It\u2019s a $40 shooter aimed at a slightly unfashionable audience that stuck to its guns and turned out bloody great.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou can\u2019t really replicate what Bulkhead pulled off here, but they knew exactly who the game was for, priced it fairly, built the community before launch (and actually talked to them), cut the PR nonsense, were authentic (to a fault at times), and made something cool.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On that $40 price point, Elliott suggested Wardogs hit \u201cthe modern pricing sweet spot, sitting below the friction point of a $70 AAA release while capturing that chunky volume of players priced out of premium titles.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>User reviews are now \u2018Very Positive\u2019 after initial complaints around launch problems. That appears to be done and dusted now, with players getting on with the game and having fun. A number of gameplay clips showing Wardogs shenanigans have gone viral (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/wardogs-players-are-avoiding-one-of-the-games-factions-because-it-has-a-stigma-of-attracting-the-stupidest-players\"><u>players are even avoiding Wardogs\u2019 Lonestar faction over a perception that they seemingly attract the worst players and lose the most games<\/u><\/a>).<\/p>\n<section data-transform=\"divider\"><\/section>\n<section data-transform=\"author-sign-off\" data-id=\"ad651d6b-b2ae-4500-bed9-cb7b5247c0b6\"><\/section>\n\n<\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Breakout hit Wardogs is outpacing Arc Raiders and Helldivers 2 on Steam in terms of copies sold at launch, new data shows.
