35% of Marvel's Wolverine Sales Were on Disc, According to Analyst Data
According to retail data, 35% of Marvel’s Wolverine sales were physical discs.
A recent retail analysis reveals that 35% of Marvel’s Wolverine sales were physical disc copies, according to Ampere Analysis. The game shifted 2.16 million units in September, with a significant portion of those sales being on-disc. In Europe, 51% of Wolverine sales came from the boxed version, with more than two thirds being physical sales in France.
In the UK, however, two thirds of sales were digital. This comes amid Sony’s controversial plans to phase out physical disc production for PlayStation by 2028, which has sparked online backlash. Former PlayStation boss Shawn Layden questioned the decision, stating that the 20% who don't download games are largely the most faithful players. However, Sony has not shown any signs of changing its stance on this matter.
