Thank you commenters grassyknoll and CatButler for putting that in terms I could understand.ĭark Souls wasn't originally intended for PC, which seems ludicrous now. But that's nearly 300,000 fewer units than SteamSpy attributed to Dark Souls 2 on PC (994,455).

That leaves around 700,000 attributable to PC. Subtract another 350,000 for sales of Dark Souls 2 on PS3 in Japan, a version From Software published. Subtract from that 1.2m - the figure Bandai Namco said it shipped within three weeks of Dark Souls 2 launch (before the PC version came out and could add to the total). Start with the Dark Souls 2 total of 2.3m.

However, SteamSpy's Dark Souls 2 PC figure is in dispute.

Dark Souls 2: Scholars of the First Sin has sold 256,772 (+/- 12,021) units on Steam.

Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition has sold 1,977,541 (+/- 33,243) units on Steam.

The PC-specific number comes from SteamSpy, which may not be entirely accurate.

Dark Souls 2: Scholar of the First Sin has sold 600,000 units worldwide.

Dark Souls 2 has sold 2,311,000 units worldwide.

Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition ('with Artorias of the Abyss') has sold 2,765,000 units worldwide.

Dark Souls has sold 2,828,000 units worldwide.

The numbers come from a Japanese presentation by From Software, reported by Famitsu and relayed/made sense of on NeoGAF. The brilliant Dark Souls series has surpassed 8.5m sales, and more than 3.25m of those were on PC.
