Bungie’s MMO shooter Destiny continues to be on a success path. In January, the game sold digitally like hotcakes and there were awards again.
In January, according to a statistic from Super Data Research, Destiny was the US title that sold third most digitally on consoles worldwide. Ahead of Destiny are two established franchises in their nth installment, Grand Theft Auto and Call of Duty. That is quite an achievement for a game in continued age that still has to establish a franchise. Although it seems to be working quite well.
Seems like fresh players are still coming to Destiny even after Christmas, there are awards again, at the developer conference GDC, industry colleagues awarded the Destiny team with the award for best technology, while the game of the year award went once again to Shadow of Mordor. Hearthstone was honored for best design, and Elite: Dangerous took home the audience award.
These are good news that continue and confirm the previous trend. Additionally, the impressive user numbers Bungie revealed at GDC.
