It's official: Blizzard Entertainment's latest opus, Diablo 4, is the fastest-selling game made by Blizzard Entertainment.
Diablo 4, which only officially launched on June 6, achieved this significant milestone not long after the early access period started. This isn't a small feat considering that Blizzard has a hefty catalog that includes big names like Overwatch, World of Warcraft, and even StarCraft.
Unfortunately, like the secretive Prime Evils, Blizzard isn't quite keen on revealing the exact figures of Diablo 4 just yet.
It's unclear why Blizzard refuses to give critics the sales figures when developers can't wait to boast about their achievements. At the very least, Blizzard did let us in on one massive figure - the 93 million hours players have poured into Diablo 4 since its release. This equates to over 10,000 years of gameplay in just a few days! It's no wonder that it didn't take long for someone to reach level 100 in Hardcore Mode.
If we pull up the history books and search up Blizzard's other best-selling titles, the previous record-holder is World of Warcraft: Shadowlands, which sold 3.7 million units on the PC in 2020 at launch. Before this, Diablo 4's predecessor, Diablo 3, had sold 3.5 million copies when it first came out at the turn of the last decade, setting a record for the fastest-selling PC game back then.
