If the excitement surrounding Borderlands 3’s announcement hadn’t already shown you the scale of the hype behind this game, look no further than past entries in the Borderlands series. Despite Borderlands 2 having been released all the way back in 2012, the game still has a surprisingly large player base – with over a million unique users playing the game every month.
The figures come from Take-Two Interactive’s latest quarterly earnings report, which along with details on Red Dead Online has provided us with some neat information on the Borderlands series. Along with the stat on monthly player numbers, Take-Two revealed the Borderlands series has sold-in 43m copies, with 20m of these made up by Borderlands 2.
Sold-in, by the way, means units sent to retail – so this figure includes game copies currently sat in shops.
