- The game has received a lot of recognition and is by far the ost popular title released by FromSoftware.

Elden Ring changed the open-world and RPG genre when it was released in 2022. Many developers took inspiration from this game and started developing the Soulslike genre, which is clearly being saturated now.
That said, the FromSoftware title introduced many new players to the genre, and thanks to that, it became the most successful title the developer has ever released. The dominance of this title continues even after two years, as it has sold over 28.6 million copies.
Why it matters: Elden Ring is designed as a title that welcomes any type of player, as there are just so many options for playing the game. While it can be challenging to play, that is simply the nature of FromSoftware games.
FromSoftware officially announced this number in a recent press release. The press release’s main focus is the game’s spin-off Nightreign, which has many players hyped.
ELDEN RING NIGHTREIGN, a spin-off title of the action RPG ELDEN RING, which has shipped over 28.6 million copies worldwide and was jointly developed by the two companies, will be released worldwide in 2025.

This report seems to conclude the data by the end of September 2024. The last sales update of the dark fantasy RPG title was revealed in June. Back then, it was revealed that the title had sold 25 million copies, so it sold 3.6 million in just over 3 months, which is pretty good.
Its DLC has likely played an important role in boosting sales, as it was among this year’s hot topics. Fans should also note that the entire Dark Souls franchise has sold over 27 million copies, and Elden Ring managed to break this record alone.
