YouTube Gaming didn’t say Elden Ring was its biggest gaming launch ever.
Margit, The Fell Omen was the most popular Elden Ring video upload in terms of bosses, while Samurai was the most popular in terms of character class.
From Software‘s critically acclaimed action RPG was released on February 25 and had shipped 13.4 million copies by the end of publisher Bandai Namco’s financial year on March 31.
In April, market research firm NPD Group said Elden Ring had overtaken Call of Duty Vanguard to become the best-selling game of the past 12 months in the US market.
Bandai Namco, which was recently the victim of a ransomware attack, may provide updated Elden Ring sales figures when it reports its first quarter financial results on Friday.
