Fallout 4
Games That Made Most Money At Launch
Bethesda has seen its fair share of record-selling products. Skyrim was narrowly beaten out on this list, but is completely left in the dust when compared to its sister game, Fallout 4. According to Fortune, the game took in an impressive $750 million over the first 24 hours on the market, confirming it as one of the fastest selling games of all time. Bethesda hasn’t announced any official sales figures since then, but Bethesda’s VP of Marketing and PR, Pete Hines commented that Fallout 4 was ‘the most successful game we’ve ever launched in our company’s history’ in an interview last year.
Fallout 4 was met with favorable reviews (here’s what we thought of it), and added in a host of new features, including fully-voiced dialogue options, base-building, and deep weapon customization options. Since launch, the game has received a slew of add-on content, including a major expansion called Far Harbor.
