Destiny Is PS4’s Biggest Software Launch To Date

It does look as though the game known as Destiny will continue to set records, as it has been announced by Sony to be the PS4’s biggest software launch to date, at least in North America. In fact, Destiny is deemed to be the fastest purchased and most played PS4 game during its first week on sale, and true to the notion that good games move hardware, it looks as though the previous week was when the single biggest PS4 hardware sales week happened – since Christmas 2013, off course, and that goes to say a whole lot.

Apart from that, Destiny has also caused ripples across the pond, being the biggest new intellectual property launch over in the U.K. as we reported a couple of days ago. In fact, it had also generation a cool half billion dollars in revenue on its first day alone, making it a major gaming juggernaut right from the get go.

Other interesting trivia that Destiny fans might want to take note of would be its rather impressive gameplay stats, where those who game on the PS4 in North America managed to collectively accumulate over 11 million gameplay sessions, and Destiny also happened to be the most shared and most broadcasted PS4 game during the entire first week that the game went on sale.
