Microsoft just announced that Halo 5: Guardians is the fastest selling Xbox One exclusive game and has crossed $400 million in global sales. The franchise now sits at more than $5 billion overall.
In the UK, Halo 5’s day one revenue exceeded even Spectre (the James Bond movie) at £7.7 million compared to £6.3 million for Bond. Halo 5 also has been the most played game on Xbox One with 21 million hours of gameplay across all players. More than 568 million REQ cards have been acquired as well.
