Spider-Man: Miles Morales sold 4.1 million units in 2020
Spider-Man: Miles Morales has proven to be a solid hit for the PlayStation.
As part of today's third-quarter earnings reveal, where Sony announced 4.5 million sales for PS5, the platform owner also announced the sales figures for Spider-Man: Miles Morales.
The game, which launched alongside the PS5 in November, has so far sold 4.1 million copies to consumers as of December 31, 2020. The number includes copies of PS4 and PS5, both digitally and in retail formats. This is a decent entry for a smaller-scale expansion, but nowhere near the mega-hit that is its predecessor, Spider-Man.
By comparison, Spider-Man sold more than 3.3 million in three days and has now surpassed 20 million units since its launch in September 2018.
Miles Morales was never going to outsell Spider-Man, of course, but according to third-party reports, he managed to outsell Uncharted: The Lost Legacy, the similarly-sized and budgeted standalone expansion.
That said, it's worth keeping in mind that Miles Morales will continue to sell well for the near future, as launch games often become a must-have for early adopters.
