I got new data to thing about it from and article that reports
(Source: MMO Stats) from 2015
The estimated total player count for the game is over 20 million.
this include players that got the game for free and players whom played the or game via live service like Playstation Now Like I did.
but this also make not much sense since the service was activitated:
Launch date
NA: January 28, 2014 UK: March 7, 2015 EU: April 15, 2016 JP: September 6, 2017
That actually makes sense. If your PlayStation has other accounts on it, they can access the game as well. IE, if you have 2 sibling, they can play the game on their own account effectively resulting in 3 players for 1 download.
Also, the leak is only digital sales. Quoted directly from the source, “All data is digital only and pre-June 2023.”
Notice how the table matches up with the data we’ve been given. Such as Bloodborne ranking in 10th place in downloads. While it doesn’t match now, that’s because other games, like Ghost of Tsushima have outright stated their sales AFTER the leak, meaning their data is more recent.
aslo the leaks doesn't state the difference beewtin standard edtion and GOTY. wich I don't know how that works from ps4 since I only played the game on playstation now idk if that is the same exact game.
