The co-op shooter sold over 12 million copies in 12 weeks, so it would be a little difficult for the game to surpass that, but that doesn’t mean that it can’t be done. Also, Sony would be very content with the game’s performance on PC, given thatthere has been a lot of controversy recently.
The game requires players to have a PlayStation Network account for online multiplayer and the PlayStation overlay and connect it to their Steam account. It is also not available in regions that do not support the PlayStation Network; therefore, it is doing great at the time.
