Embracer Group has announced that Metro Exodus and Dead Island 2 have sold 8.5 million and 2 million copies, respectively. According to the company, both of these two games have been successful, with Dead Island 2 hitting its 2 million goal in just a month.
Going into more details about Metro Exodus, Embracer Group claimed that the game has been played by more than 10 million people. Furthermore, Metro Exodus sold more than 500K units last quarter.
Metro Exodus came out in 2019, so it took the game almost four years in order to hit its 8.5 million goal. Its Enhanced Edition is also one of the few games that require an RT-capable GPU.
Let’s now hope that Embracer will reveal the next part of the Metro series. According to reports, 4A Games may already be working on it. So, from the looks of it, it will be only a matter of time before we return to its world.
As for Dead Island 2, I’m genuinely surprised by it. Not only was it an enjoyable game, but it also performed incredibly well on all platforms. Furthermore, it packed some truly amazing graphics. Yes, there wasn’t any dynamic time of day/weather, but its pre-baked solution was among the best we’ve seen so far.

Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.
