Saber Interactive has announced that World War Z, the action-packed co-op shooter inspired by Paramount Pictures’ blockbuster film, has sold nearly 2 million copies globally in its first month. In order to celebrate this announcement, Saber and Focus Home Interactive has released a new trailer that you can find below.
Josh Austin, SVP, WW Licensing and Interactive at Paramount Pictures, said:
“World War Z has fast become one of our most successful interactive games to date. It’s a testament to both the incredible co-op action experience that Saber Interactive and Focus Home Interactive have crafted, as well as the strong appeal of our hit franchise with fans across the globe.”
Saber recently revealed the first season of free content heading to World War Z in the coming months, including a brand-new Tokyo mission, a deadly new zombie type, six-skull difficulty setting, Weekly Challenge mode and bonus cosmetics. Other future free updates will feature a wave-based survival mode, private lobbies, the ability to switch classes during PvPvZ matches, field of view (FOV) and level of detail sliders on PC and more.
Powered by Saber’s dynamic Swarm Engine, World War Z unleashes hundreds of fast-moving, bloodthirsty zombies – able to move and strike as one collective herd as well as break off into individual attackers – at a time on players. Players can choose from six distinct classes and an arsenal of deadly weapons, explosives, turrets and traps. Players will have to outlive the dead through intense four-player co-op campaign missions around the world, including New York, Jerusalem, Moscow and Tokyo, and battle both zombies and real human opponents in competitive, team-based Players vs. Players vs. Zombies (PvPvZ) multiplayer.

Amazing achievement!
Nah, not really. Sekiro sold 2 milions under 10 days, and it’s a single-player only game.
But the thing is… Sekiro is on Steam, that makes the real difference. 🙂
And Sekiro isn’t a copy of Dark Souls, like WWZ is a L4D copy, a bad one, i might add.
#EpicFail
I doubt it made a lot of sales on fortnite launcher, probably most sales are consoles
They said it sold 320,000 copies on the Epic store on May 1. So yeah the big numbers is from the console platform
I doubt they even sold so many copies on Epic store. I bet the game sold better on Skidrow store than Epic.
To be fair epic has been shown to be incompetent I wouldn’t believe any word they say cause it my might be a lie, for I care they could buy the game copies themselves to make it look like its selling.
Source ; Dude, trust me.
console gamers buy any garbage so no surprise
and i’m pretty sure those games outsold most of those console games but either way dont throw stones if you live in a glass house
I have a legit question, and no this isn’t a Steam vs. Epic thing but a legit wonder. AMD was giving copies away with AMD graphics cards…. They still are to my knowledge. Is Epic counting those codes redeemed as a sale?
But, why?
This is a bad L4D ripoff with a bad engine, the special enemies are broken from all the videos I’ve seen except the tank and the only interesting thing about it is the huge hordes.
Just because a game is similar to L4D doesn’t make it good. WW2 the Raid sucks for instance. Vermintide 1 was just frustration, idk about Vermintide 2 but everyone says it’s good.
People are desperate for l4d3, so they’ll play cheap knock offs
So rather than play L4D2 which has infinite replay value , while waiting for Turtle Rocks new game, they buy this trash.
Publisher says World War Z has sold 2 million copies meanwhile the Twitch current viewership of 288 viewers paints a different picture.
Lies!
I don’t think they paid for the game. Most people probably got it for free with the graphics card deal that is everywhere since the game released.
