Square Enix has today announced that augmented role-playing FPS Deus Ex: Human Revolution has sold 2 million copies across the globe, just two weeks after its EU launch. An impressive figure considering that the Deus Ex has yet to launch in Japan, and an indicator that game sales may be about to pick up as we head into the industry’s busiest period.
Last month we awarded the game an almost-perfect 9 out of 10, praising Deus Ex for its satisfying, unique gameplay and focused approach to story-telling.

Hopefully more good games release in August next year as this proves they can still get great sales (as long as the game is decent of course).

Glad to see it has done so well.
I’ll definitely be getting it later on in the year when it gets cheaper and I have a bit more money to spend.

I’m glad to hear it, I am one very satisfied member of that two million. Personally I’ve got my fingers crossed it’s done well enough to have a sequel made.

If the original press release said that they have SHIPPED 2 million copies then that shouldn’t be read as SOLD 2 million – there is a big difference between shipped to the retailers and actually sold to the consumer.
