Active Matter has now officially sold over half a million copies across PC, PS5, and Xbox platforms, as per publisher Gaijin Entertainment.
In a recent announcement, it was indicated that the intensely supernatural shooter, Active Matter, has exceeded the new 500,000 benchmark and attributes its “largest portion” of players to Xbox.
“Active Matter has exceeded 500,000 copies sold globally across PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. The number incorporates sales on Steam and Gaijin.net alongside console editions of the game, with Xbox currently representing the largest portion of Active Matter users.”
Half a million copies sold within less than a month is quite impressive for a new IP, especially given the launch of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 and updates to Battlefield 6 to contend with. What’s intriguing is that a significant number of Active Matter players apparently choose Xbox as their platform of preference.
You might expect a hardcore shooter of this type to be more favored on PC, but since the FPS supports Xbox Play Anywhere, one could argue that this may have influenced the preference towards Xbox.
Gaijin co-founder Anton Yudintsev also mentioned that “sales have stayed extraordinarily consistent since launch” and is now focusing on post-launch content as the next significant step in the coming months.
Honestly, I haven’t yet had the chance to try Active Matter – these PvPvE extraction shooters aren’t usually what I gravitate towards. Nevertheless, I’m quite pleased to see the game thriving on my preferred platform. It almost makes me want to participate, just knowing the community is present.
To conclude, if you haven’t encountered Active Matter previously, we will provide you with an official description and some images to check out below.
